Spring 2027

Brimfield May 2027

May 11–16, 2027, Tuesday through Sunday, along Route 20 in Brimfield, Massachusetts. Brimfield isn't one event with one opening bell — it's 20+ independently owned fields, each with its own hours.

Field hours are Brimfield-local Eastern time. See all three shows on the Brimfield 2027 dates page.

When Is Brimfield in May 2027?

Direct answer: the May 2027 Brimfield Antique Show (the spring show) runs May 11–16, 2027. The other two 2027 shows are July 13–18 and September 7–12.

May 2027 is the first of the three scheduled show weeks. Heart-O-The-Mart's owner described May as the largest of the three shows (The Reminder, Aug 21, 2023), and visitors including Dust and Wonder (Sep 11, 2025) and Val Marie (May 6, 2026) favor May or September over July for comfort. Those are past accounts, not a forecast for 2027.

Planning this show: opening day or later in the week?

May 11–16 is the first scheduled show week of 2027. The overall week is confirmed; which fields open on which day is, for most fields, the customary pattern rather than a 2027 announcement (the grid below marks each).

  • Opening-day priorities. Visitor accounts compiled in our best-days guide put the freshest selection on the first days a field is open, generally Tuesday and Wednesday. The Brimfield Show Promoters Association (BSPA) FAQ says some larger shows charge a $5–$10 opening gate, with the amount listed as TBD, so a 2027 opening fee is not confirmed.
  • Customary opening patterns (BSPA shows listing and field sites, checked Nov 2, 2026): Dealer's Choice and Treasure Trunk Tuesday run Tuesday only; Heart-O-The-Mart, New England Motel and Hertan's open Wednesday; May's Antique Market opens Thursday; Auction Acres runs Friday and Saturday; Weekend Warrior runs Saturday and Sunday. Green Acres, Heart-O-The-Mart and May's Antique Market have confirmed their own 2027 dates; New England Motel and Hertan's have not.
  • Later-week priorities. The first-timer's guide notes that the best deals tend to come at the tail end of a field's run, and the best-days guide associates Sunday with the steepest discounts but thinner selection. Saturday is May 15, 2027.
  • Weather. Our weather guide gives climate-normal averages for May (highs about 66–68°F, lows about 47–48°F, the wettest of the three on average) and flags mud in the grass fields after rain. Those are long-run averages for the area, not a May 2027 forecast.

What's Open Each Day

2027 dates not yet confirmed by the field itself

  • Brimfield Antique Shows (Hertan's): As of November 6, 2026, Hertan’s own page on Brimfield Live Online still displays older date ranges rather than 2027 dates. Confirm its 2027 field dates directly with the field before traveling. The confirmed Brimfield corridor dates (May 11–16, July 13–18 and September 7–12, 2027) do not establish this field’s own announced dates.
  • New England Motel Antique Shows: As of November 6, 2026, New England Motel’s own site still lists 2026 show dates. Confirm its 2027 field dates directly with the field before traveling. The confirmed Brimfield corridor dates (May 11–16, July 13–18 and September 7–12, 2027) do not establish this field’s own announced dates.

These are the overall 2027 show-week dates, not confirmation that every field opens every day. The grid uses published field opening patterns where a 2027 announcement is unavailable; confirm dates, hours and admission with each field before travel.

How to read the grid: a field marked Confirmed for 2027 has announced its own 2027 dates (source and the date Finder checked are shown). Not confirmed for 2027 means its own site still showed older dates when checked. Everything else is provisional: it follows the published pattern from the Brimfield Show Promoters Association shows listing and 2026 field guides (accessed November 2–6, 2026). Of the 21 fields on the schedule, 3 (Green Acres, Heart-O-The-Mart, and May's Antique Market) have their own 2027 confirmation.

On the published pattern, 15 fields would be open on opening Tuesday, May 11, including Dealer's Choice and Treasure Trunk Tuesday, which only run that one day. Saturday, May 15, has the most (19). These counts are provisional.
