This shows one of the earlier concert stages, said to be from the summer of 1930. Here's our post with all three of the Esplanade concert stages. (This photo is from the Boston Public Library's Collection.)
If you're out and about in Boston on July 4th, we have a resource page that tries to answer the questions you may have about: what's open and closed, parking, restaurants, trash pick up, and MBTA schedules.
We wish all of you a safe and happy holiday and hope you have tomorrow off, giving you a long weekend to make it even better!
