Newark’s Official Visitors Guide: Perfect for a First Time Visitor

Newark is one of those places that people may think they know, but they truly have no idea. This is why the city’s first Official Visitors Guide is such a critical tool; it’s the perfect introduction to a city that is practically bursting at the seams with culture, vibrancy, and charm.

Having debuted just a year ago, the Visitors Guide has quickly become the go-to publication for a first-time visitor interested in exploring the city. Spurred on by a partnership between the Greater Newark Convention and Visitors Bureau and DMC Publishing, the Visitor’s Guide promotes the must-see destinations in the Newark region to local, domestic and international visitors.

Available in print at the Visitors Center and in a digital format on the NewarkHappening.com website, the Visitors Guide features insider information on key attractions, restaurants, hotels and signature events in the city. Special sections include “What’s New In Newark”, “Annual Festivals and Events”, “Newark After Dark”, and so much more.

There’s even a removable city map that makes a great keepsake poster!

Covering all possible topics that would ease your introduction to Newark, the Visitors Guide is the smart traveler's handbook. Expert travel writers have done the homework for you, and come up with recommendations on where to sleep, where to eat and what to order, what to do, and how to get there!

So in order to make the most of your precious vacation days without having to spend hours on internet searches and outdated articles, simply open up the Visitors Guide for practical, accurate and local advice in a pinch.

Pro Tip:

Before you dive in, grab some sticky notes so you can mark the pages you’re interested in and want to go back to. This will make it so much easier when it’s time to visit that one restaurant with the amazing sangria, the hotel with an airport shuttle, or the park with the riverfront view.
