When you’re cheering on your favorite band at Boston Calling this year, you’ll have plenty of options when you’re craving a bite to eat. This year, 29 local restaurants will be featured at the Memorial Day Weekend music festival, which will be held at the Harvard Athletic Conference from May 26-28.

Making their debut at the festival will be 10 new vendors including Blackbird Doughnuts, Dumpling Daughter, Joanne Chang’s Flour Bakery and Cafe, El Jefe’s Taqueria, Lily P’s Fried Chicken, and The Broadway, serving American comfort food.

Some return vendors from past festivals will be familiar to attendees. You’ll be seeing Mamaleh’s, which will be offering loaded latkes fries, topped with pastrami, Swiss cheese, and Russian dressing. The Farmacy Café will sell its signature “naughty” waffles and rice and salad bowls, while at The Smoke Shop BBQ, you can down the Ultimate BBQ Cone, filled with pimento mac and cheese, pit beans, burnt ends, coleslaw, and pickled jalapeños. You’ll also find Chicken & Rice Guys, Jaju Pierogi, FoMu ice cream, and more.

Platinum ticket holders can enjoy specialty menus created and prepared by Boston’s top culinary talents. On Friday, Carl Dooley of Mooncusser and Phil Frattaroli of Ducali will be featured. Saturday will bring back Colin Lynch of Bar Mezzana to the festival. Ending the weekend on Sunday, Karen Akunowicz from Bar Volpe will be joined by her chef de cuisine, Molly Dwyer, and they will deliver an Italian menu. Will Gilson of Puritan & Co. will also be showcased on Sunday.

A selection of beers and wines will also be available, such as Miller Lite, Samuel Adams, and Truly Wild Berry, a hard seltzer.
