boston tea party reenactment photoFriends! Brethren! Countrymen! Join us to celebrate and re-enact the single most important event leading up to the American Revolution—the Boston Tea Party! A must-see for the whole family, if in or visiting Boston.

Boston marks the momentous 250th Anniversary of the Boston Tea Party, an event that forever altered the course of American history. As part of this grand commemoration, two compelling reenactments will unfold in the heart of Downtown Boston.

'Patriots and Loyalists' (6:00pm-7:00pm, Downtown Crossing) - Saturday only
Step outside to join the crowd as a Town Crier shares news about the tea crisis and its impact. Experience the debates of colonial Boston's citizens during this free outdoor event. Don't miss this chance to be part of the events that changed the course of American history.

'Meeting of the Body of the People' (6:15pm – 7:15pm, Old South Meeting House) - Friday & Saturday
Relive the historic gathering that led to the Boston Tea Party. Witness history unfold as colonists discuss the tea tax and follow their path to Griffin's Wharf. Tickets include a live stream and access to Revolutionary Spaces' sites from December 15th to December 17th.

About the Original Tea Party:
On December 16, 1773, thousands gathered for a fiery debate about the tea tax that ended when patriot Samuel Adams gave the secret signal to dump 342 chests of tea into Boston Harbor. Find out more at the The Boston Tea Party Ship & Museum.
