There's never much debate about what to do in Boston this time of year. Summer keeps the city's calendar packed, with big-ticket events, neighborhood favorites and plenty of reasons to stay out a little longer after work.
This week, the Best of Boston Soirée returns for an evening celebrating the city's standout restaurants, bars and businesses with tastings and cocktails, Ariana Grande brings her Eternal Sunshine Tour to TD Garden for a long-awaited run of arena shows, and The Night Bazaar transforms Charles River Speedway into an evening of local vendors, street food, live music and drinks under the summer sky.
