2019 Fall Foliage Festival

Be a be part of our Fall Foliage Festival – a terrific opportunity to sell your wares, showcase your business, or promote your cause or organization – and join in the celebration of everything the Town of Winchester has to offer!

For the past two decades, area residents and visitors from afar have flocked to downtown Winsted to enjoy the autumn splendor, discover crafters, artisans, vendors, local businesses and organizations, plus tasty treats to tickle their taste buds. It’s just good, old-fashioned, family fun!

​Join the festivities for our 22nd year on Saturday,  September  28, 2019,  from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m.  The north side of Main Street will be closed to traffic to provide ample room for vendor displays and meandering visitors.  Moderately priced vendor spaces are available in several sizes with special consideration given to Winsted businesses and non-profit organizations.
