The Charles River Esplanade is a showcase for the myriad facets of Boston—at once active and exuberant and serene and contemplative. On the Esplanade, you can spread out a blanket and read a book with your headphones on or watch a classic movie while you indulge in a picnic supper. You can race a model sailboat or a full-size skiff. You can dance under a late summer moon or ice skate on a snowy afternoon. You can take a romantic gondola ride and even get married under a willow.
The Esplanade is one of the most vibrant, beautiful, and versatile parks in urban America. Most important, it belongs to you. Our job at The Esplanade Association is to help you get the most out of it. Explore the activities on these pages, and find out how the park can add to your life.
Check back in May for the 2012 Schedule of Programs & Events!
