- Accessibility
- The parking lot at 540 Harrison Ave. is wheel chair and stroller friendly
- How much is admission and what does it cover? Admission is $10. The SoWa Winter Festival is a whole experience, and as we do not have large corporate sponsors, the admission fee is used toward the operation of the festival (20+ staff at all times, décor, activations, entertainment, cleaning, trash removal, etc.) between the Winter Festival at the Power Station and the Food Truck Bazaar. Since this is an indoor market, we are also responsible for utilities (heat!), water & sewer, electricity, and City of Boston real estate taxes. Implementing this fee allows us to charge less to the local vendors than other competing markets on a per date basis. Any leftover funds are used towards other free neighborhood and community events such as the SoWa Open Market (every Sunday from May through October) and SoWa First Friday which are free of charge to attend.
