On a chilly Saturday, February 23rd, CRASHfest turned the heat up at the House of Blues transforming it into an indoor music festival with a kaleidoscope of sounds and cultures that brought an eclectic and worldly spin to the Boston music scene.

The House of Blues features an expansive dance floor and seated balcony overlooking the main stage, the luxurious and exotic Foundation Room, and a smaller stage in the restaurant. Global street food, international beer, and custom cocktails will be available for sale.
