Fall (September–October) is the peak billboard season for the full DMA. Summer (June–August) is the secondary peak, driven by Six Flags New England's peak season in Agawam. UMass Amherst's back-to-school period (August–September) creates secondary demand for Hampshire County inventory. The Springfield Thunderbirds AHL season opener at MassMutual Center (October) adds to fall demand. January and February are the softest window and the best time to negotiate rates and lock in preferred positions. Book 4–6 weeks ahead for standard placements; Big E and peak fall positions should be secured 8–10 weeks in advance.
