Welcome to A Weekend in Boston, a weekly post about events occurring over the upcoming weekend throughout all of Boston. For events coming up in the North End, see the event calendar. For more information on each event, click on the event title.
It’s officially Spring! But New Englanders know that this time of year is unpredictable. There’s a possibility for one last snow storm on Monday, though it could turn to rain. This weekend offers a lot of partying at The Royale, some relaxing music elsewhere, and the final college hockey games of the 2018-2019 season at Hockey East at the TD Garden. (I’m only a little upset UMass Lowell didn’t make it there.) Let’s see whats going on this weekend in Boston.
