How do you join ABCD’s Buona Sera: An Evening with Friends? Easy. Your company purchases a table for 10, and you let us know if you have a preferred restaurant or celebrity among the local politician, sports, arts and media figures.  We’ll pair you up with your unique 2024 restaurant and celebrity guest.

Invite 10 of your favorite people (including yourself of course) — your favorite clients, your best employees, your most enjoyable colleagues — people who are fun to talk with, who will enjoy an evening over some of the best food in the North End, with an intriguing celebrity added to your table for added sparkle.

For the evening, first gather for a wine reception altogether atop One Beacon Street, with fabulous views of Boston. After, everyone strolls over to the North End to their designated restaurant where their table for 10 plus celebrity awaits.

Prepare to be amazed by some of the best food in the North End. Dinner may be full menu, short menu or served family style, depending on the restaurant. Full meal and wine are included. (Mixed or specialty drinks, or additional wine, can be purchased separately if preferred.) A generous tip has been provided for the waitstaff, so your table is all set, no worries. Just sit back and enjoy your Evening with Friends from beginning to end.

We look forward to having you join us for our 12th year of ABCD’s Buona Sera: An Evening with Friends.  If you have a restaurant or celebrity preference, act soon to secure your first choice! (If a celebrity is in super high demand, still be sure to sign up soon, we’ll be fair and pick the lucky table out of a hat of first responders.)

All proceeds benefit the ABCD North End/West End Neighborhood Service Center, which provides essential services to low-income and at-risk elders in our local community. Our organization and budget are local, so your table donation will go a long way in providing support and services for those in need nearby in the community. We thank you very much for your support!
