Join the Fairmont Copley Plaza for an early stress-free, potentially family-free (unless you decide to invite quirky Aunt Linda), and fun Friendsgiving celebration.

Let’s celebrate with a delicious Thanksgiving meal where you let the Fairmont’s kitchen do all the prep work, cooking, and cleaning. Try new wine pairings that may bring you inspiration for that perfect wine gift to bring to your “real” Thanksgiving dinner. Come share food, friendship, and thankfulness with the Fairmont and kick off this year’s holiday season.

The five course dinner is part of Fairmont Copley Plaza’s popular 140 Supper Club series where guests descend a century-old staircase and whisper a password to be immersed into a themed, intimate dining experience hosted by Executive Chef Laurent Poulain.
