AREPA Boston 2026 Holiday Party

AREPA Boston closes the year with a holiday party Wednesday, December 2, 2026, from 5:30 to 7:30 PM at Democracy Brewing, 35 Temple Place Downtown. Welcome remarks come from Roan Miles, AREPA board member and Vice President / Market Director of Real Estate at JPMorgan Chase. A taco bar and soft drinks are included; alcohol is a cash bar. Members enter free; non-members pay $25. The chapter is also selling $100 memberships that cover the rest of 2026 plus all of 2027 for joins after October 1—run that math before you buy a one-night ticket.

AREPA is the Asian Real Estate Professional Association for commercial real estate: brokers, lenders, developers, and CRE counsel. That is a different trade graph from AREAA’s residential and brokerage lunch at My Happy Hunan on November 20. Temple Place puts the night next to Downtown Crossing, closer to Financial District and Seaport deal calendars than Brighton Beacon Street.

If your December open nights are Ascend’s Chinatown soirée on the 3rd or MassBio’s Cambridge mixer on the 10th, those crowds will not replace a CRE year-end room. Two hours ends at 7:30; plan a later dinner if you stay for hallway introductions.

Democracy Brewing is walkable from Downtown Crossing. Bring ID matching your Eventbrite name. Re-check the AREPA events page if the membership promo language shifts before December 2.
