We Make Noise Fest is a free intersectional feminist festival in Downtown Boston that celebrates women and gender-expansive musicians, visual artists, and makers in the Greater Boston area.
Since 2023, we’ve transformed Downtown Boston into a stage for belonging, equity, and empowerment, and have reached an audience of over 50,000, hired 40+ performing artists, and showcased over 80+ visual artists and makers.
WMN Fest is produced by We Make Noise Boston and Mass NOW in collaboration with The Mayors Office of Arts & Culture for The City of Boston, Boston Women’s Market, Downtown Boston Alliance, and local artists.
“Bigger than me, yet, somehow made for me – that’s what We Make Noise Festival felt like
Being part of something that units artists, vendors and community reminded me how deeply art matters, now more than ever.”
“As a nonbinary & queer artist, i really appreciated the opportunity to be a part of WMN Fest. i felt a strong sense of community being built amongst performers and festival-goers on the day of the festival, as well as with the greater boston collective with the press leading up to the event. being part of spotlighting gender equity in music on GBH and in The Boston Globe made it even more meaningful.”
