Parking

Parking in Great Barrington and Pittsfield can be difficult to find. The Town of Great Barrington does put a hiatus on parking tickets during the festival BIFF. This does not include private lots.

If you do get a ticket, please do not bring it to the BIFF staff. We are not able to validate parking.

Directions:

From the Taconic State Parkway – Passenger Cars and Vans. No Commercial Plates: Take the exit for Route 23, in Columbia County, New York. Drive east on Route 23 through Hillsdale, into Massachusetts. Stay on Route 23, passing through the village of South Egremont and into Great Barrington. At the intersection of Route 23 and Route 7 (a traffic light) turn left, onto Route 7 North. This quickly becomes Main Street.  One block after the next traffic light is Castle Street. Make a left, and you will immediately see the theater’s marquee.
