Happenings in Southie Labor Day Weekend

Eat/Drink:
Cisco Brewers is bringing a slice of Nantucket to the Seaport District! Beginning Wednesday, August 29th enjoy a new pop-up beer garden featuring Cisco Brewers award-winning craft beer and wine, paired with raw bar and tacos from Loco Taqueria & Oyster Bar.  This pop up will be open weekly Wednesday through Friday, from 4 p.m. to 11 p.m., and Saturdays from noon to 11 p.m. through the fall. The outdoor beer garden will feature Cisco Brewers’ extensive portfolio of beers on tap, including New England favorites like Whale’s Tale Pale Ale, Grey Lady Wheat Ale, and its newest year-round beer, Gripah, a grapefruit session IPA, as well as Nantucket Vineyards Wines and Malus Malum Ciders. The official address is 85 Seaport Blvd.  A portion of the proceeds from the Seaport location will support the Massachusetts Fallen Heroes Memorial Fund, a Boston-based nonprofit that developed and maintains a memorial in the Seaport honoring service members from across Massachusetts lost in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Watch:
Get ready to be dazzled by fireworks over Boston Harbor on Thursday, August 30th at 9 pm. It’s Illuminate the Harbor! Best viewing locations are East Boston’s Piers Park, Christopher Columbus Park, Long Wharf, and of course Southie’s Seaport District!

Old Ironsides is making a turnaround on Friday, August 31st around 11 am at Castle Island. Head out around 11 am to watch the USS Constitution in all her glory! While you’re out there you might as well treat yourself to lunch at Sullivan’s right?

Bowl:
Celebrate the last few days of summer at Kings Dining and Entertainment! Kids are invited to come in and bowl on Labor Day week (August 27-Sept 3), leading up to the start of school, and bowl for the price of the grade that they are going in. This is available from open until 8p and if a child is going into second grade, they pay $2 a game. It is a great way to enjoy the last week of summer before kids start school again!
