This is the worst CT fair I’ve ever been to. Please, spare your time and fun to go to any other fair in CT.
We had to park far away at a big Eversource parking lot and walk 15 min across the whole lot to get to the “shuttle” line that would bring us to the fair. The line took about 25 minutes for us to get onto the “shuttle” which was just a school bus where we were crammed in to get to the fair. The shuttle was so pointless because it would’ve been faster for us to walk to the fair. It took us about 45 minutes to get from the parking lot to the fair. There was so much traffic from cars trying to go to the fair where there wasn’t any parking spots. School busses are also notorious for having bad airflow so it was like 20° hotter in the bus than outside - I was breathing in the breath of the guy in the way back of the bus with how humid it got in there, it was NASSSTYY!!!
Then we got to the fair and there were only 4 ticket booths to get into the fair!!! On god this place had the worst planning ever. The lines to get into the fair were insanely long, it took us about half an hour to get tickets to get into the fair. You can just buy tickets online apparently to save yourself that time.
Then we went in the fair and I’m so sorry but almost all the food vendors sucked. There was no unique fair food or cool food trucks. It was just regular stuff like hot dogs. Many food vendors were non-profit organizations who did not know how to make food. A huuugee disappointment.
Then to get back to the car we had to take the school bus again and so it took us another 30 minutes to get onto the bus and leave again.
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE!!!!!! WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS FAIR!!! GO TO ANY OTHER FAIR!!!
