Watch them whip. Gen Z is leading a line dance revival in Boston.

In the back of The Harp, a sports bar across the street from North Station, a blonde woman in denim shorts and cowboy boots grabbed her friend’s arm. “This is it!,” she exclaimed, pulling her companion onto the dance floor. It was a Thursday at 10:30 p.m., and “Burn It Down” by Nickleback had just come on at full volume.

 

Under colorful flashing lights, about 30 young Bostonians stomped their boots in unison and did a high kick with a little clap. Some people sang along; one dancer with a long dark-brown ponytail, wearing a white miniskirt and sneakers, called out the steps for a couple of beginners stumbling along in front of her.

 

The soccer fans at the front of the bar watched the World Cup with a mass of Gen Z line dancers bobbing in the background.

Upgrades Expected to Make MassMutual Center More Competitive

Sean Dolan says the hard work to secure nearly $100 million from the state for upgrades to the MassMutual Center began years before the press conference earlier this summer to announce the funding.

 

Much of that work involved tours, or walk-throughs, said Dolan, general manager of the facility, of both the MassMutual Center and competing venues in Hartford, Providence, Worcester, and elsewhere, to show where the more than half-century-old arena and quarter-century-old convention center were showing their age and falling behind that competition.

 

“It started back in 2019 … mentioning to those at the Mass. Convention Center Authority that, with our competitor set, we were doing very well, but we had fallen behind our competition,” he told BusinessWest, adding that there are different competitors for both the arena and the convention center, and the Springfield facility was losing out on business in both realms and in danger of losing more, especially as the other venues went about their own improvements.

“As a small non-profit, serving vulnerable women and children, we struggle to meet their needs with our limited budget. Donations from the Conventions C.A.R.E. program not only provide needed supplies to our families, but they also help to preserve our resources during these challenging times.”

"The champion of this department was Levy Restaurants, an event and catering company associated with Hynes Convention Center. Levy’s cupcakes were basically beyond words. I’ve never tasted a better crafted cupcake in my entire 26 year-cupcake-eating-life."
