#NHV

Welcome to Downtown New Haven, where awe-inspiring innovation meets the nation’s best pizza. Here, connections are made possible, from art and education to cutting-edge research and world-class healthcare. Here, our hamburgers go sans ketchup and bookstores and boutiques abound. Throughout the Elm City, thought is nurtured, imagination is realized, and industries are born.

Located between Boston and New York, New Haven is the smart spot.  There’s a lot to learn, taste, see, and do here. Click around and see what you’ve been missing, us.

Due to the weather and late bloomage, the 2024 Cherry Blossom Festival has been cancelled on April 6. Please visit the park in the coming weeks when the trees are expected to bloom!

New Haven Restaurant Week is back, April 6-11, inviting you on a global culinary adventure at 23 top restaurants across 8 vibrant neighborhoods.

Downtown New Haven’s most extensive food crawl series is back April 26. Get your steps in through a progressive tasting adventure across The Shops at Yale, from Historic Chapel Street to Broadway.

Eat

New Haven is the Pizza Capital of the United States, where every slice is a masterpiece of crispy, coal-fired perfection—always charred, never burned. From legendary spots to hidden gems, taste your way through the city’s iconic pizzerias and discover why New Haven-style pizza is in a league of its own.

Shop Downtown New Haven! From unique local boutiques to favorite national brands and one-of-a-kind finds—we’ve got what you’re looking for.

New Haven is buzzing this April with electric energy on every corner.  Check out our e-newsletter for your guide to the must-do, must-see, and must-eat moments this month!

See

In New Haven, we end our days in curtain calls and encores. Here, locals and visitors come together and connect over a melody, a monologue, or a mic drop. Interested? We’ll save you a seat.

Museum-crawl through the streets of New Haven and feel the history, art, and culture come to life – from the exterior walls of an outdoor mural, to the hallowed halls of the New Haven Museum. 

We won’t check your zip code at the door; when you’re here, you’re a local. Spend a night or extend your stay at any of our conveniently located hotels.

Whether you greet the day with chicken and waffles or a classic eggs benny, we’ll meet you with our spiciest Bloody Marys and sweetest bellinis – bottomless, of course. 

Farm-fresh or fast (good) food, leave your lunchbox at home. Our restaurants give lunch breaks a good name, serving up the freshest ingredients on revolving menus that will fight your mid-day fatigue.

Long week?  Tired of cooking? Treat yourself to some savory cuisine from downtown’s culinary experts, to-go.
