June 28 – July 5, 2011: Re-enactments, Zombie Survival, Kite Flying, Harborfest, and 83 July 4th Celebrations just in Massachusetts!

Johnny Monsarrat
I got an angry note this week from someone who went to one of the thousands of events I list every year and didn’t like it. Go figure. You guys know that I don’t actually run these events, right? My opinion may differ from yours, and sometimes events don’t come as advertised (although I try to attend as many as I can to give a personal recommendation). Try to have the following attitude: you can have fun anywhere, even at a small town event, with the right friends along. But it’s still smart to do your own research ahead. If you have to write me, maybe you could say something like, “Thanks for the free blog.”
Anyway, this week is your chance to get out of Boston and spend your tourist money on some smaller town that needs it. Last year I sort of blew a gasket and listed 330 Independence Day celebrations in New England. This year I’ve gone to the same level of depth but kept it local to Massachusetts, listing more than 100 celebrations within a quick drive from Boston. But you can still see the Big list of last year’s 330 July 4th Celebrations. They don’t change that much year-to-year. I hope you are having an awesome week. Now get out there and do something fun!

| The Week in Weird | ||||
| Mon 7/4Southeast MassSturbridge, MA (Old Sturbridge Village) |
 |
|||
| The event of the week is July 4th at Sturbridge Village. It’s my favoirte live action recreation museum, featuring the 1830s. I’ve been there and the entire day is full of educational fun, plus the fireworks that end the evening are fantastic! Old Sturbridge Village, Sturbridge, MA.508-347-3362-. more |
||||
| Wed 6/29Boston MetroRe-enact the Boston Tea Party |
 |
|||
| The 4th of July is about a lot more than parades and fireworks. Consider seeing a re-enactment instead, or joining one! Raid a British ship with the Sons of Liberty, throw tea in the Harbor and fire the cannons! Admission $25-$35, reservations required. The Liberty Clipper, Boston, MA.617-742-0333. more |
||||
| Sat 7/2Boston MetroContinental Congress re-enactment |
 |
|||
| This re-enactment of the Continential Congress is a must-see! Join re-enactors like former US President John Adams and talk about issues like slavery, federalism, and taxes. 11am-12pm. Old State House, Boston, MA. more |
||||
| Sun 7/3Metro WestNathaniel Hawthorne’s Birthday |
 |
|||
| The Old Manse is also doing a celebration favoring an old-timey New England author who wrote about the Salem Witch Trials. 269 Monument Street, Concord, MA.978-369-3909. more |
||||
| Sun 7/3 – Mon 7/4Boston MetroBoston’s 4th is also on July 3rd! | ||||
| Obviously, if you’ve never been, it’s fantastic to see the Boston Pops concert and fireworks on the Esplanade. Come early and don’t sit close to the actual orchestra or you’ll get trampled. But did you know that you can beat the crowds by attending the practice concert (no fireworks) on July 3rd, 8pm?7/3 @ 8:30pm: Esplanade Concert. 7/4 @ 9am: Parade from City Hall Plaza, 9:45am, Reading of the Declaration of Independence, Old State House, 10:30am, Independence Day Oration, Faneuil Hall. 7/4 @ 8:30pm Esplanade Concert & Fireworks @ 10:30pm. City Hall Plaza, then Esplanade, Boston, MA. more more |
||||
| Fri 7/1 – Mon 7/4Metro WestNeedham, MA – Needham Celebrates 300 | ||||
| Independence Day is about a LOT more than sitting in overcrowded Boston, listening to an orchestra that you can only hear on speakers! Last year I went overboard and found 330 other celebrations in New England. This year’s I kept the same level of depth, but kept it to Massachusetts. Make it an excuse to spend a weekend elsewhere, especially in towns like Needham, which is having its 300th anniversary and making a real weekend of it. Festival 7/4 @ 5pm, then fireworks. Parade 7/4 @ 8:30am followed by kids events, live music. Memorial Park, Needham, MA.781-444-3924. more more |

||||
| Wed 6/29 – Mon 7/4Boston MetroBoston Harborfest |
 |
|||
| Boston Harborfest always offers something interesting. The trick is to ignore the stuff that happens all year (like guided tours, whale watches, and museums) and go for the special stuff. Check out the detailed schedule for a full list of events. Meanwhile, look for highlights here on the blog! City Hall Plaza, One City Hall Plaza, Boston, MA.617-436-6339. more |
||||
| Mon 6/27 – Sat 7/2Boston MetroParty on the Plaza |

||||
| Mon 7/4Boston MetroCape Verdean Festival |
 |
|||
| I’m not exactly sure what the Cape Verdeans were thinking, scheduling their festival on July 4th. There are 364 other days in the year, people! Free. Music, martial arts, food, entertainment. City Hall Plaza, One City Hall Plaza, Boston, MA.617-442-6644. more |
||||
| Wed 6/29Boston MetroOpening Day at Frog Pond |
 |

||||
| Thu 6/30North ShoreMaplewood’s Second Annual Carnival |
 |
|||
| However, if you’re really looking for something for the kids, there’s a special fair just for them before the block party, from 2-5 PM. It’s old-fashioned style and they’ve got a dunk tank! Maplewood Care and Rehab, 6 Morrill Place, Amesbury, MA.978-388-3500. more |
||||

||||
| Thu 6/30 – Sun 7/10South ShoreBrockton Fair |
 |
|||
| The Brockton County Fair has a demolition derby! I have been, and it’s huge, much larger than the Fiesta Shows carnivals.

Brockton Fairgrounds, Rt 123, Brockton, MA.508-586-8000. more |

||||
| Sun 7/3Boston MetroBoston Chowderfest |
 |
|||
| If you’re a tourist, you’ll probably be experiencing Boston’s uniqueness through its chowder. The rest of us… please find something more arty to do this week. City Hall Plaza, One City Hall Plaza, Boston, MA.617-436-6339. more |
||||
| Thu 6/30 – Thu 9/15Boston MetroSunset Clambake on Spectacle Island |
 |
|||
| For example, why not head out to the Boston Harbor Islands? Thursday is the first of a series of clambakes on Spectacle Island this year, catered by the Summer Shack. The price is rather steep- $75- but it covers the cost of the ferry, food, and beer. (Please tell me that you don’t think the best way to experience the outdoors is to get buzzed.) There are also children’s and vegetarian options, which are cheaper. Spectacle Island, Boston, MA. more |
||||
| Sat 7/2 – Sat 8/27Boston MetroKite Flying on Spectacle Island |
 |
|||
| If you “clam up” and don’t feel like “shelling” out the cash for that bake, on Spectacle Island, they’re having a kite festival, too. Spectacle Island, Boston, MA. more |
||||
| Sat 7/2 – Mon 7/4Western MassBerkshires Arts Festival |
 |
|||
| This outdoor festival should be fun to visit, but it’s clearly a vendor event. This means that you won’t meet many real artists. Great Barrington, MA.413-298-0175. more |
||||
| Fri 7/1 – Sun 7/3WorcesterNew England Summer Nationals |
 |
|||
| This claims to be the largest car show on the East Coast. Wow! Oxford, MA.508-987-2652. more |
||||
| Fri 7/1 – Mon 7/4North ShoreMarblehead Festival of Arts |
 |
|||
| With kites, model boat building, wood carving, sand sculpture, this small-town festival looks a bit more interesting than the rest. Marblehead, MA. more |
||||
| Sat 7/2 – Mon 7/4Boston MetroBenjamin Franklin in Boston: A Walking Tour |
 |
|||
| What about Benjamin Franklin? Why doesn’t he get a national holiday? It’s his birthday this week and the local Boston walking tour company does a special tour for him during Harborfest. 3 PM Saturday and 4 PM Sunday. Meet at School St & Washington St, Boston, MA. more |
||||
| Thu 6/30Boston MetroAnnual Children’s Day On the Plaza at City Hall |
 |
|||
| I’m not a child, and I don’t have any children. Yet, I’m sure I’d have fun at Children’s Day, which is part of Boston Harborfest. They’ll have the ubiquitous face painting. And jugglers. City Hall Plaza, One City Hall Plaza, Boston, MA.617-227-1528. more |
||||
| Sat 7/2 – Sun 7/3WorcesterFamily Fun Olympics at Davis Farmland |
 |
|||
| This one’s also for kids, so if you have ’em, get out to this giant petting zoo (my favorite midsize amusement park). 11 AM- 3 PM. 145 Redstone Hill, Sterling, MA.978-422-8888. more |
||||
| Mon 7/4 – Sun 7/24Boston MetroFrench Film Festival |
 |
|||

||||
| Independence Day: July 4th Celebrations: Boston Metro | ||||
| Mon 7/4Boston MetroArlington, MA | ||||
| Now on to Independence Day! It’s not just about Boston, you know. This first one is a little strange. They’ll have live music but then switch over to a big TV screen of the Boston Pops & Fireworks. Robbins Farm Park, Arlington, MA. more |
||||
| Mon 7/4Boston MetroBoston, MA: Rent a canoe | ||||
| But I think if you have to stay I Boston, here’s a more creative idea. Reserve ahead for a boat or canoe to see the fireworks from on the Charles River! Two places, Boston, MA.617-965-5110. more |
