The Roadrunner is a vibrant concert venue located in the Brighton neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, and has quickly become a key destination for music lovers since its opening on March 15, 2022. With a capacity of 3,500, it is the largest general admission concert venue in New England, hosting a variety of performances, including a notable opening concert by bluegrass artist Billy Strings.
