Boston Marathon runners and their guests can pack in the pasta together the evening before the big run. Dinner will feature a buffet and live entertainment, and the Big Apple Circus will also perform mini-acts under the Big Top, on a first-come, first-served basis. As if running 26.2 miles wasn't a circus act itself!

Marathoners will recieve a ticket with their official bib number. Additional tickets can be purchased at the Boston Marathon Number Pick-up area of the Sports & Fitness Expo during Marathon weekend.
