Creators, lights, camera — Main Street. Show the world what makes Old Wethersfield unforgettable, win cash, and get your curated walk featured on the Cove.Cards app.
Old Wethersfield Main Street is calling content creators to spotlight Connecticut's oldest town — its shops, dining, historic landmarks, and that one-of-a-kind colonial charm. Make a reel, share the magic, and help more visitors discover the village. The standout creators take home cash and a permanent spot on the Cove.Cards app.
Two campaigns. Real cash. And a feature that keeps working for you long after the contest ends.
The top creator works with the Old Wethersfield Main Street team to design a signature curated walk — your favorite route along Main Street, your stops, your story. It launches as a featured Guided Experience inside the Cove.Cards app, where every visitor who follows your trail collects Red Onions at each stop. Your name, your walk, seen by the whole village all year long.
Top-performing creator for the summer campaign. Awarded for the reel that best captures Main Street's spirit.
Top-performing creator for the fall campaign. Same creator can win both — bring it twice.
