#BostInnofest Will Rock Your World This Thursday


On Thursday over 1,800 people (current RSVP’s) will descend on the Harpoon Brewery for a night of networking, storytelling, dancing, fun games with Social Boston Sports, and of course, drinking some of the finest beer in town. This event is the official kick off to Harpoon’s widely celebrated Harpoonfest every fall which will take place Friday through Saturday this weekend. And for the first time ever Harpoon has asked BostInno to host the kick off the Thursday night before the big show.

Thanks to some phenomenal partners – FamaPR, Where, Skyhook, Sybase, Goodwin Procter, DartBoston and Social Boston Sports – we have lined up an incredible event complete with bag toss games, one free beer upon arrival, live music from one of Boston’s rising stars and last but not least some incredible DJ’ing from the folks over at The Echo Nest.

The first 100 people through the gates will also get a free t-shirt and make sure you tweet your pics during the event with the hashtag #BostInnoFest to see them in a gallery post-event on BostInnovation.com.

As this is an extension of Harpoon’s Octoberfest we will be having some amazing live, local music. Performing throughout the night on the mainstage will be Will Dailey and the Rivals. Will is a 2x winner of the Boston Music Awards has been featured in over 50 TV shows and movies, and performed with Neil Young, Dave Matthews, Willie Nelson and John Mellencamp. Will and his band have just launched a new album last week and will be showcasing it for the first time in front of a large audience at Harpoon.

This event is the kickoff of BostInno’s accelerated growth into mainstream content, specifically with the launch of a Sports, Edu, and Around the Hub sections.

This event is RAIN or SHINE and is 21+ with proper ID required at the door. See you Thursday night!
