CARD TO CULTURE

We believe great live performance should be accessible to everyone. Most of our programming is free and open to the public.

For ticketed events, EBT, WIC, and Connector cardholders receive 50% off general admission through Mass Culture Council's Card to Culture program, making arts and cultural experiences accessible to families for whom cost is a barrier to participation.

Not valid for special events or in combination with other offers.

Check out the complete list of more than 400 organizations participating in the Mass Card to Culture program in your area!

Free & Accessible

At Riverstage, we believe the best concerts shouldn’t require a credit card. Our 2026 season is almost entirely free and open to the public — no tickets, no registration, no catch. Just show up.

Know Before You Go

Doors open 30 min before show time. Seating is general admission — stadium seating available or bring a blanket or a low lawn chair. Outside food and non-alcoholic beverages are welcome. In the event of rain or severe weather, check our website or social media for updates.
