The 104th Fisherman’s Feast opened on Thursday night, August 14, 2014 in Boston’s North End on North, Fleet and Lewis Streets.

Joining the celebration this year was the Santa Rosalia society that is marking its 75th year. Mayor Marty Walsh was also on hand to open the Fisherman’s Feast with a proclamation. See the full schedule of events at FishermansFeast.com.
