Free Events in Boston This Weekend

There are so many fun and affordable things to do this weekend in Boston!

Just a friendly reminder that I am currently not actively checking the blog since I just had a baby so the majority of information was compiled a few weeks ahead of time. Please do your own due diligence and check event info before heading out to ensure the event listed is still happening because I won’t be active at all this week. Thanks!
