About this Event
Some bars are more than just a place. Brad's is one of them.
For nearly 90 years, Bradley Cafe has been a cornerstone of the Providence College community. Brad's is a place where friendships are formed, milestones and hardships are celebrated, and the call to "meet at Brad's" means something. When a total loss fire devastated Brad's on March 6, 2026, we knew the only thing to do was come together for our community in a moment of need.
In collaboration with Backyard Boston, the Providence College Greater Boston Alumni Club, and J.J Foley's, we will be hosting a charity class to raise funds for the Brad's rebuilding efforts. The event includes a full-body strength and conditioning class taught by Backyard co-owner, Rob Velasquez. This class is approachable for all fitness levels - whether you're a seasoned athlete or haven't worked out in a while! For the fitness event, tickets are $50 per person and limited to 60 spots and WILL GO FAST! Validated free parking is available in the garage next door to the gym.
Following the class, we'll have a raffle featuring Red Sox tickets, gift cards, liquor baskets, and more. The party will continue at J.J. Foley's at 2PM — the "PC Bar of Boston" and what many would call the "Brad's of Boston." Can't make the fitness event? Come for the afterparty! All are welcome to raise a glass and keep the spirit of Brad's alive. All proceeds go directly toward supporting the recovery and rebuilding efforts of Brad's.
The fire may have taken the walls, but it could never take what was built within them. Be a part of rebuilding where we will all "meet again!"
