foobos is a free guide to live music and comedy in greater Boston — every show at 600+ venues, from rock clubs and jazz bars to concert halls and arenas, updated daily.
foobos is an independent, one-person project run by Scott, a Boston music fan. It isn’t owned by a venue, promoter, or ticketing company, and it doesn’t sell ads or tickets — it exists because finding out who’s playing tonight shouldn’t take eight browser tabs.
Concerts and comedy across greater Boston and the surrounding area: showtimes, prices, age restrictions, and genres for every listing. Each venue also has its own page with capacity, bag policy, address, and how to get there on the T — the practical details you otherwise dig for at showtime.
Listings come from hundreds of venues across the Boston area and are refreshed every day. Every show links out to the venue or box office — foobos never marks up or resells tickets. If something looks wrong or a show is missing, use the submission form on the show finder or email and it’ll be fixed within a day.
Email [email protected] — corrections, missing shows, venue updates, or anything else. Every message gets read.
