Trumbull Day To Be Summer Event Again

TRUMBULL, CT — First Selectman Vicki Tesoro announced Tuesday that popular Trumbull Day will once again take place during the summer. It will take place during the last weekend of June 2018 and will coincide with the Barnum Festival.

“I am thrilled we can bring Trumbull Day back to the end of June as the unofficial start of the summer season,” Tesoro said.

More from the town:

Trumbull Day will begin with carnival rides and amusement games on Thursday, June 28, 2018 from 5 p.m. – 10 p.m. Festivities will continue with carnival rides, amusement games, and food trucks on Friday, June 29th from 5 p.m. – 10 p.m. While there will be no carnival on Saturday, June 30th, the main event will be the Barnum Festival Drum Corps competition at Trumbull High School’s McDougall Stadium in the evening.

The final day, Sunday, July 1st, will be a spectacular culmination of all festivities with a full day of carnival rides, amusement games, food trucks, band music, car show, touch-a-truck, and ending with a fantastic fireworks display. Sunday hours will be 12 p.m. – 10 p.m. Ride bracelets will be available for purchase each day!

Tesoro continues, “I campaigned on the promise to bring Trumbull Day back to its proper time of year and that is exactly what I am doing. I am now asking the people of Trumbull to volunteer their time and skills to help organize the event to make it spectacular. If you are interested in volunteering, please fill out the Town Boards and Commissions application form found on the Town of Trumbull website and submit it to the First Selectman’s office. We cannot do it without you!”
