Stratford’s Annual Independence Day Fireworks display will be held Thursday, July 2nd, at Short Beach.

The display will begin at sundown, approximately 9:00 p.m.  The rain date will be Sunday, July 6th.

Head down to the Beach and enjoy the show!  Views are generally good from the West Shore of Milford, as well as throughout Stratford.

Every other Saturday we’re hosting Free Live Music from 4-6PM at the Walnut Beach Arch, located at the corner of Naugatuck Ave. and Broadway, and just a quick stroll from Walnut Beach. 

Featured will be great local artists starting May 23rd, through August 29th.

Bring your chairs and some refreshments and join the fun!

Thanks to all our performers and volunteers for making it all happen!
