The 20th Annual Honk Festival of Activist Street Bands will be hitting the streets of Somerville from October 9 through 12 (rain or shine).
HONK! 2025 will feature a wide variety of musical/activist events planned for Tufts University, in Medford (HONK! U Conference on Thursday), Davis Square, in Somerville (street music, workshops, lantern parades on Friday and Saturday); and Harvard Square, in Cambridge (with a vast Parade out of Davis Sq. to then participate in Oktoberfest, on Sunday).
At full power, these bands create an irresistible spectacle of creative movement and sonic self-expression directed at making the world a better place. This is the movement called HONK!
