New Milford RiverFest
Oktoberfest
New Milford is excited to be holding its second annual RiverFest on Saturday and Sunday, October 5 and 6 at Young’s Field Park, on Young’s Field Road, across from the banks of the Housatonic River! Based on the success of last year’s inaugural event, it has expanding to a two days and added an Oktoberfest component.
Taking place along the banks of Housatonic River in New Milford, CT – gateway to Litchfield County –and the historic Downtown Village Center, with its popular restaurants and diverse retail offerings, Riverfest highlights the heart of New Milford’s community.
