Happy 617 Day! Today is basically Boston’s birthday if you think about it. To celebrate, we’re handing out the best kind of party favors: free stuff. Here’s where to find birthday freebies around Boston.

IN THE FUTURE

🥩 Raise the Steaks

Sunday at Eastern Standard (5PM)

Eastern Standard is putting an end to Sunday Scaries with Steak Frites Sundays, serving up saucy steaks, bone marrow, a raw bar and more, starting at $30.

🏀 Connecticut Sun vs Indiana Fever

July 15th at TD Garden (8PM)

Caitlin Clark and the Indiana Fever are coming to Boston to take on the Connecticut Sun. Don’t miss this WNBA showdown at the second-ever regular-season game the league has hosted here.

🧀 Brave Cambridge’s Cheese Caves

July 19th at Formaggio Kitchen (7:30PM)

Uncover the secrets of cheese aging with expert mongers deep beneath their Cambridge shop. Taste your way through 80lb wheels of Comté, delicate blues and more.

🎷 Newport Jazz Fest

August 1st-3rd at Fort Adams State Park (12PM)

We can’t stop thinking about the Newport Jazz Fest lineup. Who wouldn’t be stoked to see names like Janelle Monáe, The Roots and Jacob Collier this summer?

🍸 Must-Try Mocktails

Whenever around Boston

Who says going sober means staying in? Boston’s bartenders are serving up mocktails and zero-proof drinks so good, we’ll be out every night this summer.

LOCALS ONLY

  • Tomorrow is your chance to score $1 ice cream! This is the cheapest thrill you’ll find on Newbury Street all summer. The first 100 guests even get a free tote.

  • Rafael Devers is headed to the San Francisco Giants and Red Sox Nation is not amused. The three-time All-Star was traded after we swept the Yankees this weekend, leaving fans fuming.

  • We’re about to show New Yorkers what real lobster tastes like; Saltie Girl is lending Edith’s Sandwich Counter the best lobster roll in New England tomorrow while supplies last.

See you soon for 617 Day!
