🤖 Save the new date: the Annual Robot Block Party is moving indoors! With heavy rain and strong winds forecast for Boston this weekend, we've made the tough call to postpone our 9th annual robot parade and block party, originally set for Saturday, September 26. The safety of our attendees, volunteers, vendors, staff, and robots comes first. The good news? We've secured an indoor space so the robots can roll, rain or shine: 📅 Saturday, May 1, 2027 📍 SoWa, 500 Harrison Ave, Boston A huge thank you to the robotics companies, universities, student teams, volunteers, sponsors, and partners who have already poured so much into this year's event. All that work carries forward to May. We can't wait to celebrate with you in the spring. Stay tuned for details! #Robotics #Boston #RobotBlockParty #STEM #Innovation
