“MetroFest unites residents, visitors, and businesses together from the MetroWest area and is the
largest arts and culture event of its kind in the region,” said Erin Lynch, Executive Director of the
MetroWest Visitors Bureau. This is the 9th year for MetroFest, and we are excited to continue to
showcase the tremendous assets across this region. There is so much to do and see! The MetroWest
region possesses such amazing cultural diversity and that is what we highlight at MetroFest–from the
food and music to activities, community entertainment, tastings of the region’s locally produced beer
and hard cider, businesses and activities. There is something for everyone and this is a family friendly,
FREE event. Come one, come all, and relish in the richness of the region.”
