Jimmy Fund Scooper Bowl Boston

The annual ice-cream festival will hit City Hall Plaza this year from Tuesday June 5- Thursday June 7.  This event is held daily for the three day stretch from 12- 8pm and features ice-cream, frozen yogurt, and sorbet from nationwide vendors.  Beginning 30 years ago as a National Dairy Association event, it has now become the largest all you can eat ice-cream festival in the nation.  Ticket prices vary- children under 3 are free, kids from 3-9 are $5, and from there on up tickets are $10 each, for an all you can eat event. (Group rates and 3 day passes are also an option).  Part of the proceeds go to the Jimmy Fund for cancer research at Dana-Farber.  Easily accessible on the Red Line or Green Line to the Government Station stop, public transportation is probably the easiest way in.  There is a calendar of entertainment, with the Red Sox wives serving ice-cream and various musical acts, as well as the mayor kicking off the event.
