SummerFest 2024

Families and friends enjoyed local history and lively activities, making this year's event a memorable celebration of community spirit.

The sun shone on Ridgefield as the Town took to the streets at the annual SummerFest on Saturday, July 27, 2024. Thank you to all who stopped by the Ridgefield Historical Society booth to share stories, history, and time. We met Ridgefielders since birth, Ridgefielders since 1941, and brand new Ridgefielders, each contributing to the spirit of the day and confirming our suspicion — Ridgefield is a Town that cares about its history.  

Ridgefield Historical Society members who missed SummerFest are invited to stop by the Scott House (4 Sunset Lane) on T/W/Th 1-5pm to collect your 2024-25 Membership Coaster Set — a special glimpse into Ridgefield’s past.  See our SummerFest photo gallery here:
