In addition to dorm activities or events sponsored by the city of Boston for the public, Boston Ballet plans larger optional weekend outings for all students. The tickets are pre-purchased through the Boston Ballet. Members of the residential staff attend the activities as chaperones and all transportation is provided. Activities are optional, and are filled on a first come first served basis, so space is limited. Fees for Weekend Activities range from $30 to $80 per ticket. Students have the opportunity to go on any or all of the eight exciting weekend activities. Last year's activities included:

• A day trip to Provincetown on Cape Cod to experience a culturally diverse town and visit one of the National Seashore's beaches
• A hilarious and interactive visit by renowned comedy hypnotist Alan Sands
• Performances by the Lar Lubovitch Dance Company and Alonzo King's Lines Ballet at the Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in the Berkshires
• A performance by the exciting and always original Blue Man Group in Boston's theatre district
• A fun and informative tour of Boston in an authentic World War II amphibious vehicle, called the "Boston Duck Tour"
• A thrill-filled trip to Six Flags New England, where students have the opportunity to ride two newly unveiled rollercoasters
• A Dinner Cruise at the end of the program allowing students to spend time with new friends they have made in the program
