Parking & Directions

FREE ON-STREET PARKING AND PUBLIC PARKING LOTS

Streets around the 1924 Courthouse Square in Downtown Newton will be closed to vehicles on festival day to accommodate the festivities.

Festival guests should follow the “PARKING” signs as they drive toward Downtown Newton. Guests are welcome to park in any of the hundreds of free, on-street parking spaces and numerous free public parking lots in Downtown Newton outside festival barricades. Please note that some public parking lots are reserved for artists, volunteers, and vendors.

HANDICAPPED PARKING

Designated parking for guests with valid handicapped permits will be available closer to the festival on a first come, first served basis in the parking lot at 217 Main Ave. To access the lot, please present your permit to volunteers wearing bright red T-shirts at the barricade on Main Avenue where it intersects with East 3rd Street.
