Looking for a nice evening outside, while watching the sunset over Boston skyline and enjoying outdoor music? World’s End Summer Solstice or Summer Send-Off events are for you!

What to expect

During these events you can set-up your chairs and picnic rug at the top of World’s End main hill, then relax and enjoy a nice picnic while watching the sunset. If you feel like dancing, a scene is present with local bands playing. This is a family friendly event (no dogs) and you can expect many other groups, without the event being packed as the organization is limiting the number of entrance.

For food and drinks, pick your option : you can either bring your own or try the food trucks and beers. The event usually hosts one of the great south shore brewery, like Vitamin Sea or Windowmaker. Be ready to wait in line for some of the food trucks, specially if you like ice cream !

We did this event for the 2022 Solstice with some of our friends and really enjoyed a super night with a magnificent sunset. We liked the overall set-up, good atmosphere and happiness of the event.

Bring your friends and family, and come enjoy these nice outside events!
