The experience
What's special
The Newport Winter Festival, now in its 39th year, fills Newport, Rhode Island with ten days of family fun and live music. The 2027 program includes the Annual Chili Cook-Off, the Annual Mac and Cheese Cook-Off, the 2nd Annual Newport WienerFest with a wiener eating competition, and the Annual Best Hot Drink Contest, where local bars and restaurants compete for the Festival Plaque with free admission and free samples for 21 and over. Draw the Line, the officially endorsed Aerosmith tribute show, and Changes in Latitudes, a Jimmy Buffett tribute, play the Newport Harbor Island Resort, alongside an 18+ comedy show, a Princess Party at OceanCliff Castle and family shows from Mad Science, Circus Dynamics, a reptile show and a magician. A $10 festival bracelet brings discounts at every official event and offers at participating restaurants, shops and businesses. The festival runs February 12 to 21, 2027.
