"If reserved seating is more your vibe, then get a ticket to Community Boating’s annual SAILabration fundraiser, the only event that offers reserved seating on the Esplanade on July 4. It will cost you $100 per adult and $75 per child, but that price includes plenty of space to stretch your legs, as well as unlimited water, seltzer, and Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream to beat the heat, so the cost of admission pays for itself."
