Good job, dedicated Boston citizen. If you’re getting this, it means you’re already one of the most informed + connected Beantown residents (or at least you’re about to be).

We are BOStoday — your new go-to for navigating all things Boston. Whether you’re walking the dog, still in bed, sitting in the carpool line, or sipping your morning Dunkin’, your life as a smart, engaged Bostonian just got a little bit easier.

Here’s what you can expect. ➡️

We’ll share what you need to know in Boston each day — from ranking the best dishes at a new restaurant to breaking down upcoming developments — so you can wake up, read one (free) email, learn something new and move forward with your day. We call that a win.

Because you’re an early subscriber ➡️

We’re giving you a sneak peek into what we’re working on. Here’s what you’ll find in our upcoming newsletters:

  • A monthly Plan Ahead calendar. Each month you can utilize our curated events calendar to find the best ways to fill all of your days around town — from shows to seminars. Find January’s here and stay tuned for February’s coming soon. 🗓️
  • If you’re already bundling up and sipping on hot chocolate, we’ll continue to help you find the best winter activities, like these ice skating rinks.
  • Love traveling around New England? We’re giving you the 411 on where to plan your weekend getaway in the area, like this Ice Castle in New Hampshire. 🚗
  • We will be diving into Boston’s food and drink scene. 🍻
  • And of course, we can’t do our job thoroughly without mentioning our city’s officially-designated cocktail or our favorite coffee chain. Stay tuned as we spill the beans on Dunkin’s history + learn more about the history of the Ward Eight cocktail. 🥃

Additionally, we’ll be chatting with you about adoptable pets, how to pronounce Boston street names + Massachusetts towns, where to find food halls around the city, which local podcasts to listen to, and tips for celebrating local events.

Who are we? ➡️

BOStoday is the 18th city that 6AM City (our parent company) is helping make smarter and more informed. We also exist in Austin (ATXtoday), Raleigh (RALtoday), Louisville (LOUtoday), Columbia, SC (COLAtoday) + more. We’re written for locals by locals — who you will get to know in the coming weeks.
