2025 AAAS Annual Meeting
February 13 - 15, 2025
Be a part of the 2025 AAAS Annual Meeting in Boston, February 13-15! Join the community of leading scientists, educators, policymakers, and journalists as we gather to discuss cutting-edge developments in science, technology, and policy.
Meet Boston, along with the Boston Hospitality Partners are thrilled to welcome AAAS to Boston. A lot has changed here recently, so be prepared to be introduced to a new Boston. Our Waterfront is booming with restaurants and harbor walks, our museums have expanded and our hotels have renovated. But not to worry, our mix of colonial charm and urban sophistication still shines through making Boston a dynamic site for meetings of all kind.
Even though Boston is one of the largest cities in the country, its accessibility is unparalleled. And while it's easy to see the sights on foot, Boston also has an excellent public transportation system. In addition to everything within the city limits, some of Massachusetts' most scenic and historic towns are just a short distance from the city center and its proximity to other must-see sites all around New England, make it one of the country's most diverse and exciting locations.
