Free Festivals and Things to Do this Weekend in Boston: Cambridge River Festival, World Oceans Day, June 2-3
Submitted by Audrey Trieschman on
Festivals and more festivals - the summer festival season kicks in to high gear this weekend, from shores of the Charles at the Cambridge River Festival (Saturday) and the streets of Salem for the Salem Arts Festival (Saturday and Sunday) to the Rose Kennedy Greenway for Figment Boston (Saturday and Sunday), Central Wharf for World Oceans Day (Sunday) and City Hall Plaza for the Jimmy Fund Scooper Bowl (Tuesday through Thursday).
Strawberry season has also arrived (a few weeks early!), and we’ve rounded up some places to pick-your-own, as well as - you guessed it - 3 strawberry festivals. And if “sign kids up for summer camp” is still on your to-do list, check out Tara’s last-minute finds - spaces are still available! We also have a great list of places to go and things to see in the Springfield area. Summer day trips, anyone?
Read on for our picks of the week, and be sure to check our calendar of events for more happenings.
Enjoy!
June 1 Update: Due to heavy rain forecast, Figment Boston has been canceled. Please check with the organizers before attending any outdoor event this weekend.
