Innovation Islands: Wild Music Boston Harbor

Join Jazz Boston for an immersive musical experience on Georges Island!

Visitors will be treated to acoustic solo & duo jazz musicians playing throughout the island and historic Fort Warren. With picturesque surroundings and a refreshing sea breeze, it’s the perfect backdrop for a day of jazz and fun.

This event is *free* but ferry tickets are required to attend. See below for details. All visitors are encouraged to arrive to the dock for boarding at least 30 minutes in advance.

  • There is a limited number of free tickets for the 12:00pm ferry available with advance registration for each performance date, but they will be distributed on a first come, first-served basis at Long Wharf North (Gate 5) between 11:00 & 11:30am the day of each performance. We recommend registering for updates on weather, even if you do not plan to use a free ticket.
