Fun and festivities kick off at Boylston Plaza at the Prudential Center at 7:00 a.m. to greet early morning commuters and run until 7:00 p.m. for the evening rush hour.
What: Britain Calling with Virgin Atlantic and VisitBritain
Why: Virgin Atlantic and VisitBritain are hosting this event to celebrate that there's no better time to get more Britain for your buck with historic deals on hotels and airfares. Britain is much more affordable since the dollar goes further than it did one year ago. Affordable airfares from Virgin Atlantic and hotel deals should inspire Americans, who suffer from a 'vacation deficit,' to take a desperately needed break across the pond this year.
When: Wednesday, September 23, 2009
Where: Boylston Plaza, 800 Boylston Street: 7:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m.
