The experience
What's special
Connect Festival is a one-day Christian music outreach festival at Camp Monadnock, a Christian camp and conference center at the foot of Mt. Monadnock in Jaffrey, New Hampshire. It is produced by Fuse Ministries, a volunteer-run Massachusetts nonprofit ministry, and the organizer describes its aim as sharing the love and hope of Jesus with thousands of people across the Northeast. Admission is free, paid for in advance by donations from individuals and businesses. The 2027 edition is on Saturday, September 11, from 2 pm to 9 pm, with the lineup still to come.
How it works
The festival takes place on Saturday, September 11, 2027, from 2 pm to 9 pm at Camp Monadnock, 257 Dublin Rd, Jaffrey, NH. General admission is free, but a ticket is required, and upgraded VIP tickets are offered. All sales are final with no refunds. The camp is about an hour from Worcester and 90 minutes from Boston or Springfield. Lodging for the full weekend, including dorms, family rooms and campsites, can be booked directly with Camp Monadnock.
Who it suits
It suits Christian music fans and church groups from across New England who want a free, single-day outdoor concert in a camp setting. The organizer frames the day as an outreach event open to everyone, with the aim of reaching as many people as possible. Anyone wanting more than the Saturday concert can add a weekend stay at the camp.

Getting there
How do I get to Connect Festival?
By car
Most people drive to Connect Festival. Check current road and traffic conditions before you set off, and see parking below.
By train
Wachusett is fare Zone 8: $12.25 one-way, $6.00 reduced. The final Wachusett-to-Jaffrey leg needs a taxi, hired car, or a pickup by the retreat party, no transit covers it.
Book / infoBy bus & public transit
Greyhound (on the FlixBus network) runs Boston South Station (700 Atlantic Ave) to Keene (Corner News stop, 67 Main St. 'Bus will stop on Gilbo Avenue'), one daily departure at 10:45 am, fastest run about 3 h 55 min.
Book / infoTaxi & rideshare
MHT's official ground-transportation directory lists taxi, shuttle/limo, and ride-sharing categories, with reservation-based sedan/van operators explicitly serving destinations across New Hampshire, Massachusetts, Maine, and Vermont. The ~44-mile trip to Jaffrey is far beyond any scheduled route, so a reservation-based car service from that directory is the realistic form of this mode; app-based rideshare pickup exists at the airport but driver availability for a rural Monadnock-region drop, and especially the return pickup from Jaffrey on festival day, should be treated as unreliable.
Book / infoA Monadnock-region operator (217 Old Homestead Hwy, Swanzey NH, the Keene area, ~20 min west of Jaffrey) whose own site lists Manchester-Boston (MHT), Boston Logan (BOS), and Bradley (BDL) in its airport service area, running smoke-free sedans and vans with the passenger setting the pickup time. Advance reservations are required and rates are quote-based, this is the closest thing the Jaffrey area has to an established airport-transfer operator, covering all three realistic airports from one booking. Phone (603) 352-5550, office hours 8 AM-3 PM.
Book / infoTaxis and rideshare such as Uber and Lyft can be limited near the venue, especially late at night or in rural areas. Agree a pickup point and time in advance and keep a backup plan.
🅿 Parking
The venue is a rural drive-in church camp whose official directions are framed by car: 'just an hour from Worcester and 90 minutes from Boston'. VIP gates open 1:00; general admission gates open 2:15.

ConnectFest-weekend RV sites: $115 (site, no meals, 1-4 people) or $135 (site + 1 person's meals). The camp's year-round family campground runs '32 tent and RV sites with water, electric, and sewer hookups available' (regular-season $50/night water-electric, $60/night full hookups), the festival-weekend listing doesn't itemize which hookup level festival RV sites get.
