A huge initiative of the new MGM Music Hall at Fenway is the community; which is why they have partnered up with the Boston Arts Academy. The BAA, which is opening its own brand new, state-of-the-art school as it celebrates its 25th anniversary, will allow the students who attend to be exposed to an enriching new environment in which to learn and perform at MGM.
The venue is a joint venture between Fenway Sports Group, which owns the Red Sox and Fenway Park, and concert promoter and operator Live Nation.
Godsmack will kick things off with the first concert Saturday, August 27th. Up next: James Taylor.
More than 60 performances are booked through the end of the year, including Bruno Mars, The B-52s, and Lil Nas X.
