Atlantic Wharf Waterfront Plaza

Atlantic Wharf Waterfront Plaza is an outdoor public plaza on Boston’s waterfront, close to the Seaport, Fort Point and downtown. The green space at the water’s edge links the Rose Kennedy Greenway with the Harborwalk, making it a natural stop for people exploring the harbor. It offers a break from the pace of the city, with room to sit, stroll and take in the view.

Programming runs through all four seasons and is designed for all ages, including live music, outdoor fitness classes, family activities, youth programs, boating events and seasonal celebrations. Signature events include a Fall Fest, a summer bash and a New Year’s Eve ice sculpture stroll. The plaza is one of four Atlantic Wharf spaces, along with Waterfront Square, The Gallery and the Fort Point Room, all dedicated to public programming.
