Massachusetts is gearing up to showcase its pivotal role in the nation’s independence as it commemorates the 250th anniversary of the American Revolution. The Massachusetts Office of Travel and Tourism (MOTT) is set to highlight the state’s rich history, societal contributions, and untold stories to both domestic and international visitors.

As the Commonwealth marks this significant milestone in American history, MOTT will collaborate with various entities such as municipalities, historical societies, businesses, and nonprofit organizations to curate memorable experiences for visitors. Executive Director Kate Fox emphasized Massachusetts’ status as the birthplace of the nation, citing key historical events like the creation of the first state constitution in 1780 and the hosting of the National Women’s Rights Convention in 1850.

MOTT’s commemoration of the American Revolution will span across the state, with a focus on themes of revolution and independence. From Paul Revere’s ride reenactment in Lexington to Lafayette’s bicentennial visit in Sturbridge, the events planned aim to connect the past with the future and inspire an innovative spirit in Massachusetts, a state known for its trailblazing achievements.

Through a series of events and activities, including Revolutionary grave dedications and celebrations like Evacuation Day in South Boston, MOTT seeks to showcase the significant impact Massachusetts has had on the country and its ongoing commitment to a democratic society. Visitors can expect a journey through history and a glimpse into the revolutionary spirit that continues to shape the state’s future.
