Welcome To Fairfield, CT

Experience New England Culture and Heritage in Fairfield, CT

Fairfield lies along Connecticut's Gold Coast on the Long Island Sound. Locals and visitors alike enjoy spending sunny days on five miles of pristine beaches. Local history dates back to the early 1600s when Puritans grew unhappy with the reforms of the Massachusetts Bay Colony and spread their wings to other regions of the state. The Bronson Windmill and the David Ogden House are two of the many World Heritage locations that attract tourists. The city is also home to the Fairfield University and the Sacred Heart University which offer public entertainment in the form of concerts and live theatrical performances.

Things To Do

In May, the Greenfield Hill Church invites all to celebrate the onset of spring during the Dogwood Festival. Events include an art and craft show, which features more than 40 artists from across New England presenting everything from handmade furniture to musical instruments.

On Thursday and Friday nights from June through July, all grab blankets, lawn chairs and snacks in preparation for Family Movie Nights. Scenic Jennings Beach provides the outdoor entertainment that welcomes residents of all ages.

During the third weekend in July, local businesses present the Fairfield Sidewalk Sale & Street Fair. Booths and stands line the avenues from the Heritage Square Shopping Center to the Promenade. Various venues host live entertainment, and a balloon artist is one of the many activities that delight children.

All are invited during Father's Day weekend to join in the fun at the annual Fairfield County Irish Festival. An array of tents are set up on the lawn where guests enjoy traditional music and dance performances. The field serves as the ideal location for the football and hurling competitions. Guests are encouraged to sample authentic Irish foods and browse the displays depicting the culture and heritage of the people. The event also features a raffle and a soda bread contest.
