Food and craft vendors, a business expo, live entertainment and local performers, cornhole, hula hoops, children's activities — and sweet corn from Anderson Farms. Free admission; parking at the DMV, 60 State Street. Proceeds benefit annual Chamber programming. NOTE: the 2026 date and hours below are drawn from Connecticut Public's August 2026 fall festival roundup; the Chamber had not yet published a 2026 CornFest page at the time of entry, so dates are marked unconfirmed pending the organizer's own listing.
