We're running this very early because so many readers have been making their way to last year's <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong>post. <\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This is an old post here is an updated page with the current information!<\/a><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

 <\/p>\n

Our list also helps vistors to Boston understand why hotel rooms are so expensive and restaurant reservations so scarce on some dates in May. The local destination experts who guide Boston visitors over on Trip Advisor<\/a> are busy answering questions abou<\/span>t the cost of vis<\/span>its to our <\/span><\/span>city. <\/span> <\/span><\/h3>\n

Reservations at area restaurants will be harder to find May 8th through 11th with Mother's Day and 5 commencements, and scarce May 15th through 18th when 17 schools, including BU and BC, will hold ceremonies. Harvard commencement is May 28th and MIT June 5th \u2013 each of these schools is large enough to have an impact on its own. Harvard can also interfere<\/span> with traffic as they move busloads of people from one place to another around event time.<\/p>\n

To help you plan your dining options in May and early June, here are the dates of the major commencement ceremonies for your 2015 calendar.<\/strong><\/p>\n
