This question is probably in the top ten most asked questions I get, so today I figured we could have a little chat about it!! How far in advance should things be booked for your Salem, MA vacation? The following is a little run down of my opinions on the matter. Feel free to comment below with your own thoughts!<\/p>\n
Hotel and accommodations Tickets for Halloween or Haunted Happenings events<\/strong><\/p>\n Tickets for October events can go quickly depending on what they are, so I\u2019d suggest purchasing as soon as they are available and you\u2019re able. If you can pre-order or buy online and print ahead of time, I\u2019d say do it. This way you know you\u2019re going to be able to visit the attractions you want. Examples include the Hawthorne Hotel Halloween party<\/a>, the official Salem Witches\u2019 Halloween Ball<\/a>,\u00a0Salem Horror Fest<\/a>\u00a0panel tickets, etc.<\/p>\n Smaller scale Halloween events<\/strong><\/p>\n In addition to the big name Halloween events, there are smaller ones all over the city. Tickets for these ones, in my opinion can be waited on a tiny bit. I still wouldn\u2019t wait until the very end but I\u2019d secure your hotel and other big ticket events first.<\/p>\n Salem, MA weddings<\/strong><\/p>\n Just like a wedding in any other location, I\u2019d secure your venue and vendors at least a year out. This will allow for time to plan logistics, have money for deposits, etc.<\/p>\n Non Halloween events other times of the year<\/strong><\/p>\n These tickets are easier to wait on than Halloween ones. I still wouldn\u2019t wait until the last second if you have the option to secure it ahead of time, but you have some more wiggle room when it\u2019s not in the fall.<\/p>\n I hope this was helpful!!

\nIf you are visiting Salem in the fall, book ASAP. The sooner the better, and if you\u2019re planning a Halloween visit or anywhere near Halloween I\u2019d suggest booking your hotel in the beginning of the year. Yes, for real.<\/li>\n
\nIf you\u2019re coming into the city any other time of the year you\u2019re probably okay booking within a few months of your trip.<\/li>\n
\nIf you\u2019re coming to Salem for a certain festival you might want to allow some extra wiggle room and book a tiny bit earlier, just to be safe.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
