Abstract: Let $gammain(0,2)$, let $h$ be the planar Gaussian free field, and consider the $gamma$-Liouville quantum gravity (LQG) metric associated with $h$. We show that the essential supremum of the Hausdorff dimension of the boundary of a $gamma$-LQG metric ball with respect to the Euclidean (resp. $gamma$-LQG) metric is $2-fracgamma{d}_{g}ammaleft(frac2gamma+fracgamma2ight)+fracgamm{a}^{2}2d_{g}amm{a}^2$ (resp. $d_{g}amma-1$), where $d_{g}amma$ is the Hausdorff dimension of the whole plane with respect to the $gamma$-LQG metric. For $gamma=sqrt8/3$, in which case $d_{sqrt8/3}=4$, we get that the essential supremum of Euclidean (resp. $sqrt8/3$-LQG) dimension of a $sqrt8/3$-LQG ball boundary is $5/4$ (resp. $3$). We also compute the essential suprema of the Euclidean and $gamma$-LQG Hausdorff dimensions of the intersection of a $gamma$-LQG ball boundary with the set of metric $alpha$-thick points of the field $h$ for each $alphainmathbbR$. Our results show that the set of $gamma/d_{g}amma$-thick points on the ball boundary has full Euclidean dimension and the set of $gamma$-thick points on the ball boundary has full $gamma$-LQG dimension.
