Our friends at the Greater Boston Convention and Visitor’s Bureau have alerted us that a limited number of seats have JUST been released for the August 5th date of the Paul McCartney concert at Fenway Park!

For those that have been living in a bubble this summer, Hall of Fame legend Paul McCartney will be rocking out at the historical ballpark on August 5th and 6th. The Fenway concerts will feature classics from McCartney’s extensive catalog, including Beatles, Wings and solo career hits as well as selections from his most recent album Electric Arguments, released under his alias The Fireman.

Great seats are now available in the State Street Pavilion Club section on Wednesday, August 5th. Buy your tickets in this section now (click here) and you’ll also get access to the exclusive State Street Pavilion Club before, during and after the concert! The State Street Pavilion Club is located on the fourth level behind home plate and extends down both baselines, providing spectacular views of the field and the Boston city skyline.

If you are able to go, I am completely jealous. Be sure to come back and tell me how it was!

Hitching their broomstick to the publicity-wagon surrounding the sixth Harry Potter film, the Museum of Science announced today that they will be the next stop for “Harry Potter: The Exhibition” this fall.  This traveling exhibit is currently on display at Chicago’s Museum of Science and Industry and showcases over 200 costumes, props, and set features from the record-setting wizard films - including the Great Hall, elaborate outfits from the Yule Ball, and the Gryffindor common room.

The Museum of Science will be the only New England venue to host the highly-anticipated exhibit, and although it is not set to debut in Beantown until October 25th, tickets are already on sale.  You can purchase tickets online via this link or by calling 617-723-2500. Be sure to have a credit card handy because they don’t accept golden galleons.
(Retail rates are $26 for adults and $23 for children.)

SPECIAL OFFER FOR GO BOSTON CARD & BOSTON EXPLORER PASS HOLDERS:
If you are Go Boston Card or Boston Explorer Pass customer, you are entitled to special pricing!  Show your card at the box office to upgrade to the discounted rate of $16 for adults and $13 for children.
Note: Tickets are only available at the box office (not by phone or online) and are subject to availability. Admission to the exhibit must be done on a day that your card is active.
