As we come into the last four weeks of the year, it’s important to pause and honor the community moments that truly made an impact. Black Irish Vol. 7 was one of those moments—an event that showed exactly what intentional community-building and event strategy can do for local businesses and local economies.
With over 1,600 tickets sold, 1,400+ connections made, and more than $20,000 spent in just four hours at Black-owned businesses, this Boston community event proved the power of supporting Black-owned bars and local entrepreneurs. This Black Irish Boston experience was about more than numbers; it was about strengthening Black-owned businesses, building real connections, and showing what’s possible when we design community impact events with purpose.
