As our first holiday season at The Speedway approaches, we are feeling especially THANKFUL. Thankful for everyone who has worked so hard to get us up and running. Thankful to our tenants as they hustle to open up their shops. And thankful to all of YOU who
keep showing up.
We have so much to share with you all this month and next, but before we do, we want to draw attention to the
Buenas/Super Bien NuMarket campaign that is happening RIGHT NOW. Your investment will help Melissa build the Buenas Aisle - a way to shop for her super delicious food at the forthcoming Super Bien here at The Speedway and online. If the campaign hits the
goal, funders will get back 120% of contributions in credits to use towards empanadas and more, in-store and online. Get more Buenas by funding the launch of the Buenas Aisle. Seems like a win/win to us.
Take a look at all the fun things we have planned below, and we hope to see you at The Speedway soon!
With thanks,
The Speedway Team |

Small business Saturday at the speedway
There's no one we want to celebrate more than the small business heroes here at The Speedway and beyond. From our tenants to the food truck chefs to the all the hardworking craftspeople who make these markets happen, small businesses are what makes The Speedway
tick!
Join us on Saturday, November 27 for a day of festive day of shopping small, supporting local brands, and kicking off the holiday season.
Here's how we'll do it:
Find the Small
Biz Saturday Market in Garage B from 1-6pm, where you can enjoy a Sip and Shop experience hosted by
Notch Brighton and
Hear Me Roar Artists, featuring over 40 local vendors, featuring artists, craftspeople, makers, vintage & antique curators, and so much more.
Help us decorate our first tree! We are all in for an ornament-making workshop with the Cambridge
Art Association. Make something beautiful to take home OR hang it in its place of glory on The Speedway tree for all to enjoy! Then stick around for a special tree lighting on Saturday afternoon. (This would also be a great time for you to bring by your
unwrapped toys for the Annual Allston Brighton Toy Drive.)
November 26, 27, 28, noon til close: Pop-up Bottle Shop from The
Koji Club in the courtyard - come grab your holiday bottles! Alyssa is wrapping up her favorite sake bottles to gift to your nearest and dearest.
