MA250
Just Take the Train to MA250 Celebration Events
On April 19th, 1775, a shot was heard ‘round the world and the Revolutionary War began. Nearly 250 years later, Massachusetts commemorates the many battles that led to America’s independence, with special events throughout the state. From parades to demonstrations to limited exhibits, there are so many opportunities to celebrate the American Revolution.
Ride the Commuter Rail to MA250 Events
Due to limited parking, road closures, and the expected turnout to various events, taking public transportation is strongly encouraged. Below are MA-250-related events that are easily accessible by the Commuter Rail.
From June 21-22, head to Stage Fort Park and celebrate the 250th Anniversary Reenactment of the Battle of Bunker Hill, which will include live battle dramatizations and immersive storytelling surrounding this pivotal moment in the American Revolution. Take the Newburyport/Rockport Line from North Station, and ride a little over an hour to Gloucester Station. As the park is more than a mile walk from the station, you can grab a rideshare, have family and friends in the area pick you up, or take advantage of the Stage Fort Park Shuttle— a seasonal trolley running between Gloucester Station and the park’s visitor center from June 21 through Labor Day, 2025.
