Get ready for a full day of fun! Here's a look at what you will find at this year's Celebrate Mansfield Festival:
Enjoy a wide variety of hands-on fun, courtesy of Mansfield business and community organizations and UConn departments, programs, and student groups. From a "storywalk" to martial arts demos, a teddy bear check-up to Mansfield trivia games, there's something for everyone to enjoy!
NEW: CRAFT BOOTHS
We are introducing a juried craft show as part of this year's celebration! Find hand-made, artisan, and locally-sourced crafts on Dog Lane.
Help keep yourself, your family, and your community safe and healthy by getting vaccinated! Eastern Highlands Health District will offer free COVID and influenza vaccines from 2:00 PM to 6:00 PM on Wilbur Cross Way.

Be sure to catch the Kidsville Kuckoo Revue (2:30 PM) and Pete Haddad's Hubba Bubba Magic Show (4:00 - 6:00 PM)!
