The dates for next year's Roswell UFO Festival have been announced.
From the organizer's website:
In 2018 we hosted over 20,000 aliens in Roswell! We were so amazed! Our surveys indicated people from 43 states and 7 different countries. Countless media groups and live coverage network shows, and numerous printed stories.
In 2018 we had some exciting additions including the NASA Space Suit and Alien Autopsy. We are working hard on new additions in 2019 to make this festival even bigger and better than ever. Be sure to join almost 35,000 subscribers at the bottom of the page for updates!
We have only begun, so much of the information you see now will be from 2018. We are working on 2019, so be sure to check back periodically.
This year the Festival will be held July 5-7, 2019 – make plans to attend now! We encourage you to arrive a few days early to enjoy the City of Roswell July 4 Extravaganza. Many hotels are already filling up with reservations, so we recommend making reservations immediately!
The City of Roswell invites UFO enthusiasts and skeptics alike to join in the celebration of one of the most debated incidents in history. The three-day event will feature guest speakers, authors, live entertainment, a costume contest, parade, a pet costume contest, parade, family-friendly activities and more.
I attended the 2018 UFO Festival and had a great time. If the were any drawbacks to the event, it is so spread out that people need to prepare to do a lot of walking. Public transportation is limited. What would really benefit the festival would be a centralized convention center where events (panels, shows, etc.) can be held. About the nearest thing for a centralized location is the International UFO Museum and Research Center.

Along with hotels, Roswell also has RV parks in the city. We stayed at the Trailer Village RV Park.
