Description



Thursday, May 16, 2019
Open to Close, Rain or Shine!
The Seacoast is celebrating the beginning of the Summer Season by throwing a party and YOU ARE INVITED!

The Chamber Collaborative of Greater Portsmouth announces plans for the Seacoast’s annual salute to the summer season: Hit The Decks on Thursday, May 16. Dozens of restaurants, bars, breweries and several of the city’s shops and businesses will feature Hit The Decks specials. For example: Earth Eagle Brewings is opening its beer garden on May 16, as is the Portsmouth Brewery, complete with live music. Several restaurants are offering extended Happy Hour specials, and there will be plenty of specials on Sam Adams pints, rose, mojitos and Portsmouth Punch at participating restaurants and bars. And you will want to hit the shops when you hit the decks, with specials on sweatshirts, sunglasses, tote bags and more – everything you need for the summer season!

Local inns and hotels are offering special Hit The Decks overnight rates with welcome amenities and upgrades. Please visit www.HitTheDecksPortsmouth.com for offers and up-to-date information. Hit The Decks will take place rain or shine.

The public is invited to the official Hit The Decks Kickoff Party at The River House, 53 Bow St., Portsmouth, 4-6 p.m. with Kayla from 100.3 WHEB, Greg & The Morning Buzz.
