Advance tickets for NEFFA 2026 are now available!
The Festival will be held April 24-26 at the Best Western Royal Trade Hotel and Conference Center in Marlborough, MA. Details can be found on our website.
This year’s ticket prices are the same as last year’s: the All-Festival ticket price is $120; individual sessions are $45 each, and Friday evening is $25. As always, there are discounts for NEFFA members, seniors, and young people. Children up through age 8 are free – no need to purchase a ticket for them.
Advance tickets can be purchased using PayPal or a credit card, and your tickets will be sent home to you in the mail, using the mailing address provided to us by PayPal. If you want the tickets to go someplace other than the address on file with PayPal, please send email to tickets@neffa.org with instructions.
For the second time we’ll be offering a Festival Sampler ticket! It costs $10 (8 and under free), is valid from 11am to 4pm on Saturday and/or 10am to 5:30pm on Sunday (separate tickets), and gives you access to the Marketplace, food trucks, dance performances and other Trade Center activities. You can read the details on the website.
You can earn free admission as a volunteer. Six or more hours of volunteering earns you admission to the whole Festival, but you can volunteer for fewer hours if you like and earn admission to one or more sessions.
