Mayfest

Event Details

Downtown Bennington transforms into a festival of arts, crafts, activities, food, & entertainment. This year there will be over 75 crafters and artisans from throughout New England featuring handmade crafts of wood, pottery, glass, metal, fabric, jewelry, and more. As always, School Street will be lined with ethnic treats including Indian, German, Italian, and American. You’ll also find favorites such as fried dough, gourmet seafood, wood fired pizza, baked potatoes, ice cream, and more!

Mayfest isn’t just for adults though; there are lots of kid’s activities, contests, and games. The Vermont National Guard rock climbing wall which is always the biggest kid’s attraction joins the Southern Vermont Storm football toss, rotary dunking booth, the 4-H shoot range, face painting, and more.
