Special to the Regional Review
Prezza, the beloved North End eatery, is celebrating 25 years of culinary excellence and community with a lively block party on Fleet Street on Sunday, June 22, from 12 PM to 6 PM. The event will feature delicious food, refreshing drinks, live entertainment, and family-friendly activities. All ticket proceeds will benefit the North End Youth Foundation.
The afternoon-long event will transform the heart of Boston’s historic North End into a vibrant street celebration, honoring a quarter century of Prezza’s legacy in one of the city’s most iconic neighborhoods.
“The North End has been our home for 25 years, and there’s no better way to mark the milestone than with our first-ever block party, right in the heart of the neighborhood,” says Anthony Caturano, Owner of Prezza. “This community — especially its strong Italian roots — has had our back from the beginning. We wanted to bring everyone together for a day of great food, good company, and giving back. It’s our way of saying grazie for the years of support.”
