Boston’s 2026 Calendar
Boston 250, the Marathon, Harborfest, First Night — 2026 is the busiest year this city has had in a generation. This is the month-by-month guide to all of it: when to visit, what to plan around, and what not to miss.

Four moments define this year. Book around these — hotels fill, streets close, and the city shows off.

Boston Marathon & Patriots’ Day
The city’s signature race and a long weekend of reenactments, the 11am Red Sox game, and a finish line on Boylston that stops the town.
Read the guide →July
Harborfest & the Fourth
Harborfront celebrations, the Pops on the Esplanade, fireworks over the Charles, and historic reenactments downtown.
Read the guide →July
Tall Ships · Sail Boston
Once-in-a-generation tall ship visits and a working harbor in full dress, tied to the 250th celebrations.
