Dirty Water Media launches the season from the Surfside Summer Kickoff Party at Trader Ed’s in Hyannis, hosted by Elena Calias and Brooke Alessi.

This all-new episode takes viewers from Boston’s international World Cup celebration to some of Cape Cod’s most popular waterfront, dining, and nightlife destinations. We begin at The Chart Room in Cataumet, where harbor views, spectacular sunsets, and legendary Mudslides have made it a summer tradition for generations.

In Harwich Port, we visit Ember for coal-fired pizza, handcrafted cocktails, patio dining, and live music before heading to The Port, where chef-driven coastal cuisine, a lively happy hour, and late-night entertainment create three distinct experiences under one roof.

The show also travels to The Lenox Hotel in Boston’s Back Bay, where Emma MacDonald explores how the 2026 FIFA World Cup has brought international fans, cultures, and celebrations together throughout the city.

From World Cup excitement in Boston to the places defining summer on Cape Cod, Dirty Water Media is celebrating the food, people, and experiences that make New England the place to be.
