Higher Ground, in collaboration with Burlington City Arts, is proud to present an out-door concert series called Backside 405. Located behind BCA Studios at 405 Pine Street, in Burlington’s vibrant South End Arts District, Backside 405 will feature live music every Friday and Saturday night all summer long.

The series is aimed at bringing people together safely to enjoy live entertainment while also providing an opportunity for local and regional musicians to perform for the first time in over a year. Expect approximately 26 shows ranging from indie, world, hip-hop, and everything in between. The series kicks off May 28th and runs through the end of August.

A season’s pass, which includes admission to EVERY Backside show of the summer, is $99 + fees (non-transferable, limited quantity).
