Join us for Engadget Live in Boston this Friday!

We're kicking off our Engadget Live series this Friday, July 17th in one of our favorite cities; Boston! At 7PM, we're taking over the Royale Nightclub on Tremont Street where we'll bring together gadget lovers and awesome tech brands. Sound good? First, grab your free tickets and then read on to find out what you can expect at our fun, free event.

You'll get to sit inside a 2016 Ford Escape and experience the new SYNC 3 system in the car or in standalone screens set up around the venue. Ford's SYNC 3 is equipped with voice-activated technology and a fresh interface.

Back at CES 2015 (and then on the streets of New York) we checked out Boosted Boards Dual+ electric skateboard and were quite impressed. Now it's your turn, as the skateboard will be ready and waiting for you to try it out at Engadget Live Boston!

You'll also have the opportunity to immerse yourself in the Black Hat Oculus Rift game, navigate an obstacle course with drones equipped with Panoptes Systems anti-collision tech, and try out Lenovo's latest tablets -- all while you enjoy drinks for the first guests (age 21 and older) provided by Drizly!

Get your free tickets and we'll see you this Friday. And while you're there, be sure to share your pictures with the #EngadgetLive hashtag on Instagram and Twitter. Not in Boston? We're also headed to Los Angeles on August 21st and Austin on October 16th.
