Wine connoisseurs, get your tickets to Chef Daniel Bruce's Boston Wine Festival, one of the nation's longest-running wine events. This isn't your typical, two-day festival; the festival spans three and a half months and hosts a few events each week. The 23-year-old event features wine tastings, paired with signature dishes created by Chef Bruce. Throughout the history of the Boston Wine Festival, the menu has never been repeated.
If you're a book lover there's no better way to celebrate that than by visiting the Boston Public Library, the nation's second largest library.
