Welcome to the Berkshires, "America's Premier Cultural Resort"

We are excited to add an August show to our summer event calendar!

The last weekend in August has traditionally been a haven for people from NYC and the surrounding suburbs. It is the last weekend for the Boston Symphony Orchestra at Tanglewood and a busy weekend with over 20,000 people attending Friday & Saturday concerts.

Although our July 4th weekend show has been a huge success, many of the locals leave town to avoid the crowds and people living in Albany, Springfield, Northampton, etc. do not visit the Berkshires on July 4th due to the enormous number of people in and around the area.

A Different Crowd Every Weekend.

Thousands of new visitors come to town each weekend, so expect to see an entirely new group of patrons that will include the locals who were out of town over the July 4th holiday.

About America's Premier Cultural Resort

The Berkshires is comprised of 30 unique towns and 2 cities bordering Vermont to the north, New York to the west and Connecticut to the south. The region is equidistant from Boston - about 120 miles east - and New York City - about 150 miles southwest, or a two to two-and-a-half-hour drive.

The 2.5 million visitors who travel to the Berkshires each year immerse themselves in the many cultural, historic and arts events and venues that made this area what it is today: America's premier cultural resort. You'll find world-class theatre, music, dance, museums, art and historical sites galore. The Berkshires is internationally recognized for having some of the finest cultural offerings including Tanglewood (the summer home of the Boston Symphony Orchestra), Jacob's Pillow, MassMOCA, Hancock Shaker Village, Berkshire Museum, the Colonial Theatre, Barrington State Company, Shakespeare and Company, and the Clark Art Museum.
