Our gatherings bring together leaders who’ve secured major wins—from mixed drinks to-go to delivery fee caps and life-saving grant programs—and who continue pushing for fair licensing, expanded outdoor dining, and equitable relief for all operators. By attending, you’re not just staying informed—you’re strengthening a movement that protects the restaurants that define our neighborhoods and fuel our state economy. Join us, build community, and help shape a more vibrant, inclusive, resilient future for Massachusetts hospitality.
