Stratford Main Street Festival

2023 Stratford’s Main Street Festival

Previously, over 8000 people and 180+ vendors from all CT towns have enjoyed this annual town-wide event.  Please join us to celebrate the many organizations, programs, and services the Town offers.

The Festival will feature various food trucks, vendor booths, stages, street performers, musicians, rides, games, crafts, artworks, and other fair activities.  The Festival will be heavily advertised throughout the state as a major festival.

We especially want to thank our titled sponsor, The Milford Bank, for their financial support and the Town of Stratford departments for providing the many public services that make this event safe, clean, and successful. ~ Rotary Club of Stratford, Event Organizers

The Rotary Club of Stratford started the Stratford Main Street Festival in 2011 as a community service project to replace the defunct Stratford Day.  Each year Stratford Rotarians volunteer to organize the Festival as a town-wide event to celebrate the many organizations, programs, and services the Town of Stratford offers.

We invite all organizations and vendors (profit & non-profit) to promote their work, boost their outreach and fundraising, and provide a day of fun and pleasure for people of all ages.

The proceeds will support various community efforts, including high school scholarships, Thanksgiving food baskets, Lord’s Kitchen, and Food Distribution for those in need. 

Rotarians also provide a Dictionary for every Stratford 3rd grader and a Thesaurus for every 5th grader.  In addition, we fund or provide hands-on volunteers for projects servicing seniors, the special needs population, student education, homelessness, and environmental concerns.

Stratford Rotary Club is a charted club of Rotary International.  We are a charitable, non-political, and non-religious International organization open to all.  There are over 35,000+ member clubs worldwide, with a membership of 1.2 million individuals known as Rotarians. 

Rotarians are united worldwide to provide humanitarian service, encourage high ethical standards in all vocations, and help build goodwill and peace worldwide.

We meet each Tuesday at noon for an hour.  Please contact us at info@stratfordrotaryclub.org to learn more.
