Summer is too short to stay inside, so let’s revel in the peak of the season together at Piazza all’Aperto, Eataly’s all-new block party series! Bring your fling: from smoking grills to clinking glasses, these free evenings have all the ingredients to end your summer on an epic note.
PIAZZA ALL’APERTO
Free Block Parties on Boylston Street | Thursdays from 5-9 p.m.
Starting August 3, Eataly Boston is throwing the Italian version of a block party every week for the rest of the summer! The block parties are inspired by sagre, the bustling food festivals held in the piazza of nearly every town; Italians eat, drink, and make merry throughout the warm summer nights.
Now, you can get your Italian on with endless food, drinks, and free live music in Eataly’s own Piazza all’Aperto (“open piazza”) just outside their doors! Find them on the patio at 800 Boylston Street every Thursday through September 28.
Entry is free; food and drink tickets are available in advance or at the door.

Tickets are valid all summer
Ready to block party yet? Swing by, make new friends, and start tasting! Your food and drink tickets will give you access to our chefs’ grilled plates; tasty pasta; savory sides; creamy gelato; freshly-filled cannoli; and refreshing drinks (spritzes, wine, and beer) every week.
INDIVIDUAL TICKETS | $5
Food and drink range from 1 to 2 tickets

Eataly Boston to Host Venica & Venica Estate
Family owned since 1930, Venica & Venica estate is one of the most prestigious wineries in the region of Friuli. Giampaolo recently took over the winery with his sister and cousins, making the estate four generations strong. White wine thrives in the Venica vineyards, which are spread on seven different hills, surrounded by forest and co-planted with fruit trees.
This dinner will allow Giampaolo to showcase his wines, including several white wines and even one red! Each of their bright, lush and always aromatic styles will pair beautifully with the menu designed by our brilliant Eatalian Chefs.

Join the French Cultural Center for a wine tasting and dinner with La Voile.
Epicureans rejoice! To kick-off the French Cultural Center’s season of wine tastings, they will explore the lovely wines of Alsace with a wine tasting, followed by a separate three-course pairing dinner.
Come discover the lesser-known wines of Alsace, presented by Alexandre Sojfer, Resident Sommelier at La Voile and 1855 Bar à Vins. Alex will share his expertise working with vineyards from Alsace and why this region’s grounds are so prolific yet less available to the American market than other varietals.
Event in English. Advance RSVP strongly recommended. The general tasting is a standing event – this is not a sit-down seminar. Please email culture@frenchculturalcenter.org to request a seat/chair, if needed.
The following dinner is a sit-down three-course dinner in the French Cultural Center’s Library.
