The Boston Virtual ARTCC proudly invites you to one of VATSIM’s longest-standing and most beloved traditions: the
26th Annual Boston Tea Party Live Event, coming to you
Saturday, August 9th from 11:00am to 5:00pm ET (1500z–2100z).
For over two decades, this event has brought together controllers and pilots from across the world for a day of high-flying fun, full regional ATC coverage, and a celebration of the ZBW VATSIM community — both virtually and in-person.
This year, we're honoring our roots and the revolutionary spirit of
Paul Revere and the historic
Boston Tea Party with wall-to-wall staffing across the Northeast. Expect full ATC coverage of:
• Boston Logan (BOS)
• Bradley (BDL)
• Providence (PVD)
• Portland (PWM)
• Cape Cod & Islands (HYA, MVY, ACK, and more)But that’s not all —
join the Pilot Poker Run! Fly to multiple ZBW destinations, pick up virtual playing cards, and try your luck for the best hand. The top poker hands will be eligible for
awesome giveaways courtesy of our generous
flight simulation sponsors. (Prizes and partners to be announced soon!)
Whether you’re a veteran of many Tea Parties or this is your first, this is your chance to experience the Boston Virtual ARTCC at its best — with dozens of controllers operating side-by-side in person, live from our Tea Party headquarters in Nashua, NH.
Don’t miss one of VATSIM’s most iconic summer traditions. Set your route, spin up the sim, and get ready to party — Boston style.
