Activities in Boston

Fenway Park is the oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball, home to the Boston Red Sox since it opened on April 20, 1912. Its intimate dimensions, hand-operated scoreboard, and the legendary Green Monster left-field wall make it a pilgrimage site for baseball fans worldwide.

TD Garden is Boston's premier indoor arena, home to the NBA's Boston Celtics and the NHL's Boston Bruins. Located above North Station, the 19,600-seat venue hosts over 200 events annually including concerts, ice shows, and championship sports.

The Boston Harbor Islands National and State Park encompasses 34 islands and peninsulas in Boston Harbor, accessible by seasonal ferry from Long Wharf. Georges Island (with Civil War–era Fort Warren) and Spectacle Island (with swimming beaches and hiking trails) are the most popular destinations.

The Samuel Adams Brewery in Jamaica Plain offers free guided tours of the craft brewery that launched America's craft beer revolution. Visitors see the pilot brewery where new beers are developed and sample seasonal and experimental brews.

The Museum of African American History on Beacon Hill preserves and interprets the history of Boston's free Black community from the colonial era through the 19th century. It encompasses the African Meeting House (1806) — the oldest standing Black church building in the United States.
