Bennington - Vermont Begins Here

Bennington, Vermont. An idyllic Vermont Town tucked in the Southwest Corner of Vermont’s Green Mountains.

As Bennington’s first town, chartered in 1749, Vermont truly did begin here all those years ago. Couple that with the fact that we are located just over the border from Massachusetts 10 miles to the South and New York 5 miles to the West, Bennington is the perfect place to begin your Vermont experience.

A vibrant Arts Scene. Rich revolutionary war history. Three Colleges. Four Museums. Year round outdoor activities. Craft Brewers. A real Main Street experience with Independent shop owners and one-of-a-kind finds. Home of highly acclaimed events such as the Southern Vermont Garlic and Herb Festival or the Winter Wings and HomeBrew Festival. We hope you will come see us soon!
