Rotary Spring Festival Brings Food, Fun, and Community Spirit to Fairfield on May 2

Springtime in Fairfield means community, connection, and a little bit of friendly fun—and this year the Rotary Spring Festival is bringing all three together in a big way.

Hosted by the Rotary Club of Fairfield, the festival will take place Saturday, May 2 from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. at Fairfield Central Park (Fairfield Square). Families, friends, and neighbors are invited to gather for a lively afternoon filled with games, food, and activities for all ages.

But beyond the fun, the festival also supports an important cause. Proceeds from the Rotary Spring Festival will go toward improvements to City of Fairfield Parks and Recreation playgrounds, helping create better places for local children and families to play and connect.
