The Beach Boys Set to Rock Massachusetts’ The Big E With Iconic Hits

Get ready to have fun, fun, fun at The Big E this year!

The Big E just announced that The Beach Boys will be headlining at this year's event, playing some of their biggest hits on the main stage.

The Beach Boys Headlining The Big E 2026

"This band has birthed a torrent of hit singles and sold albums by the tens of millions. But its greater significance lies in the fact that The Beach Boys’ songs have forever changed the musical landscape, profoundly influencing countless performing artists to follow," The Big E said.

Their songs have not only influenced artists, but generations of fans since the band was founded in 1961. My parents love them. I love them. It's the perfect music to play in the summertime.

The year 2026 marks the 60th anniversary of their hit song "Good Vibrations" which, of course, we hope is on the set list for the big show.

That's just one of the many catchy tunes fans will be excited to sing along to. Here are some of the other songs we hope will make the cut for their concert:

• "Wouldn't It Be Nice"
• "Fun, Fun, Fun"
• "Help Me, Rhonda"
• "Kokomo"
• "Barbara Ann"
• "Little Deuce Coupe"
• "Don't Worry Baby"
• "God Only Knows"
• "Surfer Girl"
• "Be True To Your School"
• "California Girls"
• "Surfin' U.S.A."

Could a Special Guest Appear?

In addition to seeing the iconic group, I also hope we get a glimpse of John Stamos. Known fondly as Uncle Jesse on Full House (a show that The Beach Boys frequented), Stamos has played with the band for many years.
