Nautilus Pier 4

A prime waterfront backdrop, a magnetic crowd, 70’s inspired music and the most delicious dishes and sips – The Nautilus Pier 4 sets the bar for NYE in the city. In addition to New Year’s Eve food and beverage specials, guests can enjoy Nautilus classics like the infamous Blue Crab Fried Rice, Two Hawaiian Poke, or the Whole Roasted Peking Duck, along with seasonal New England fare like their recently added Nantucket Bay Scallop Khao Soi. In-house sommelier, Brittany Tangora, will be offering wine pairings throughout the evening for those looking to elevate their dining experience. Guests are invited to come for dinner and see where the evening takes them. As the countdown to midnight begins, the celebration builds—each hour, the bar will ring in the new year early by highlighting, sampling, and celebrating the top-selling cocktails of 2025, leading up to the final toast. Around 9 p.m., the bar area transitions into a Nauti party like no other, featuring disco-inspired tunes, no cover, and endless ways to celebrate—whether that means sipping elevated ABV-free concoctions, splurging on champagne and caviar service, or discovering a new favorite cocktail. The Nautilus Pier 4 is the perfect place to say goodbye to 2025 and cheers to the new year with a complimentary champagne toast.

Dogtopia – Dog Daycare, Boarding, Spa & Wellness

Dogtopia of Dedham

At Dogtopia, we believe your pup deserves the absolute best in care, safety, and play. Whether you’re dropping off for a few hours of play, an overnight stay, or a relaxing spa treatment, Dogtopia is your dog’s home away from home. Our dog daycare provides a safe, supervised, and engaging environment where dogs can enjoy off-leash play in spacious playrooms designed for their comfort. Each playroom is separated by size and temperament, ensuring every pup is paired with the right friends for safe socialization. Our highly trained Canine Coaches are always on hand to encourage good behavior, monitor interactions, and provide lots of love and attention. Dogtopia isn’t just about play — it’s about wellness, too. A day at Dogtopia helps your dog stay active, burn off energy, and return home happy and relaxed. To support overall health, we offer the DASH Activity Collar — a daycare-approved smart collar. DASH tracks your dog’s activity levels, rest, and wellness, giving you valuable insights into their health and behavior both at Dogtopia and at home. It’s another way we make sure your pup is not only having fun, but thriving. Our boarding services give dogs a chance to enjoy all-day play and restful nights under the care of our trusted team. And if your dog needs a little pampering, our spa services include baths, brush-outs, nail trims, and more, so they’ll look and feel their best. As pet parents ourselves, we know safety and transparency matter. That’s why every Dogtopia location is equipped with webcams, allowing you to check in on your pup throughout the day. Our facilities are sanitized with pet-safe cleaning products, and our staff is trained in canine behavior, first aid, and safety protocols. At Dogtopia, we’re passionate about giving dogs the love, exercise, and socialization they need to thrive — while giving pet parents peace of mind. Discover why so many families trust us as their dog’s second home.

Revolutionary Spaces

Revolutionary Spaces is the nonprofit organization that stewards two of Boston's most iconic sites along the Freedom Trail—the Old State House and Old South Meeting House. Constructed in 1713, the Old State House was the center of royal government in the Massachusetts Bay colony and the focal point for many of the Revolution’s most dramatic events. It was here that the Boston Massacre occurred in 1770. Built in 1729, the Old South Meeting House was the largest building in colonial Boston and the site of the most stirring mass meetings that led to the American Revolution, including the gathering that led to the Boston Tea Party. Today, these historic sites and museums—located just two blocks from each other in the heart of downtown Boston—provide thought-provoking exhibits, compelling tours, exciting educational offerings, and engaging public programs.
