Newark Vacations

Only eight miles from New York City, Newark serves as the most populated city in all of New Jersey. It has long been a tourist destination for those who want the "big city feel" without the constant traffic of the Big Apple. Whether your Newark vacations are somewhat of a consistent getaway, or it's your first time visiting the area, you'll always find exciting museums, art galleries, and large music events to keep you occupied.

Major Attractions

You should pay special attention to the surrounding attractions when researching Newark hotels. With plenty to see, you'll want a central hub in which to lay down your head at night. Historical buffs can head over to the Newark Museum to see humanity's path to the present day, while those who are more interested in particular areas of history can visit the John Ballantine House or the Jewish Museum of New Jersey. Visitors with a hankering for classical music will also enjoy the Newark Symphony Hall. If you're not into public transportation, check out Newark car rental options to ensure you experience Verona Park before your trip is over.

Recurring Festivals and Events

Finding great deals on Newark vacation packages is even more exciting if you manage to do so during one of the many city events. Visit the Portugal Day Festival in June, and you'll be able to enjoy food, festivities, and all things Portugal during the weekend event. The Lincoln Park Music Festival happens a month later in July, and it features some of the best current acts in jazz, soul, and hip hop. If you show up in April, you'll also enjoy numerous festivities at the Cherry Blossom Festival.
