The Festival of Fools takes over BCA’s summer-long Twilight Series concerts for some of the most monumental— and completely free—concerts of the summer. On Friday, British songwriter Jack Broadbent—whom Bootsy Collins called “the real thang”—opens the show.  And at 7:30 pm musical globetrotter Lido Pimienta and her band perform their multitextural, space-time-bending take on Afro-and Indigenous traditions.

BCA’s 2023 City Hall Park programming is underwritten by the Pomerleau Family Foundation and The WaterWheel Foundation. Media sponsor, Seven Days. Twilight Series is presented by Soundtoys.
