Tips & Advice
- Take the CTrail Hartford Line straight into Union Station, or ride CTfastrak or CTtransit to the front door, and skip downtown traffic and parking altogether.
- If you drive, use the Spruce Street lot and find a Winterfair team member to check in, which gets you the discounted shopper parking rate.
- Street parking downtown is free on Saturdays and Sundays, so a spot on the street is an easy alternative to the lot on market days.
- Small businesses that want a table for 2026 can apply through the Hartford vendor application, and the New Haven market has a separate application.
Special Events & Promotions
- 2026 marks Winterfair's 6th anniversary.
