The other thing to do is Google "hamfest" or (e.g.) "Atlanta Hamfest" and
find the home page of the hamfest itself.

In most cases that homepage (or that of the sponsoring org.) will be included as
a clickable link on the ARRL list.

This is a good way to follow up
the www.arrl.org list and get information that you are sure is up to date.

Most hamfests are held in warm weather.

BTW, do they still have the "Flea at MIT" several times a year? (Flea
market, that is, i.e., hamfest.)
