The Weekender: February 10 to 12
February 10 to 12
It’s a weekend of sports and comfort food, with restaurants around town serving up ample opportunities to catch the Kansas City Chiefs and the Philadelphia Eagles square off at Super Bowl LVII.

As the weekend comes to a close, get ready for Valentine’s Day with the #DTXLOVE celebration in Downtown Crossing.
