August is a sacred time of year in New England. Not only is it the only time of year we have decent weather, but August brings Fair and Festival Season to the region with all of its tractor pulls, carnival midways, and tons of delicious deep-fried goodness.
Connecticut is home to a number of fairs and festivals happening from now until October. 102.9 The Whale is here to help you get your corn dog and Ferris wheel fix with our weekly guide to fairs and festivals happening around the state!
