Sorry. Whenever any Boston sports team wins at any championship game.
But Boston is also a popular city to ring in the New Year. From fireworks over Boston Harbor, to ice sculptures, there are plenty of New Year’s Eve parties and special events to do in Boston during the last day of 2017.
Go classy to ring in 2018 while wearing your tuxedo and holding a vodka martini (that’s shaken, not stirred) at the James Bond themed Casino Royale bash at the Yotel rooftop in the Seaport District, or dress up for the ’70’s at a retro arcade.
Anywhere you go in Boston to party for the New Year will be absolutely worth it!
