Event
The 242nd Anniversary Boston Tea Party Reenactment
It's December 16 and tea must be spilled! Gather at Old South Meeting House, where the colonists met in 1773, with colonial agitators like John Hancock, Paul Revere -- and some crown-loving Loyalists -- to debate the tea tax and demand liberty from the British crown! Afterwards, join the procession to Griffin's Wharf accompanied by fife and drum. You will line the shores of Boston Harbor to witness the destruction of the tea as the Sons of Liberty storm the Brig Beaver, tossing the tea into the frigid water below.
This event is presented by Old South Meeting House and the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum.
Your tickets include: 1) General admission seating at the historic Old South Meeting House, the center of protest in colonial Boston where the colonists gathered in 1773. 2) Escorted access in the parade to the harbor. 3) Special reserved viewing on bleachers with the best sight lines to the action aboard the Brig Beaver at the Boston Tea Party Ships & Museum.
