Best of Boston Soirée 2026

If you've ever wished you could sample Boston's best restaurants in a single evening, this is about as close as it gets. The Best of Boston Soirée brings together the winners of Boston magazine's annual Best of Boston awards for a night of standout bites, inventive cocktails, live entertainment, and conversations with many of the chefs, bartenders, and makers behind the city's most celebrated spots. Instead of crisscrossing Boston in search of this year's hottest reservations, guests can experience dozens of award-winning businesses under one roof. Longtime favorites share the spotlight with new discoveries, making the evening feel as much about finding your next obsession as revisiting familiar names. Come hungry, because tasting your way through Boston is very much the point.
