The Trustees to Provide Free Entry and Shuttle Service to World’s End on “Green Friday," November 25
Free parking and shuttle from Nantasket Junction MBTA Station to World's End on Black Friday
WHAT: The Trustees are offering free entry at World’s End and other sites around the state that otherwise charge entry and parking fees in support of outdoor program partner REI’s 2nd annual #OptOutside initiative to encourage families and friends to enjoy the outdoors together instead of shopping the day after Thanksgiving. There will be no on-site parking at World’s End on Green Friday; instead, free shuttles will be provided by The Trustees from the Nantasket Junction MBTA station parking lot from 8AM-4PM, the site’s normal operating hours. Since dogs are not allowed on the shuttles, please consider taking your dog to World’s End another day! World’s End is also accessible by foot or bike.
