COVID Regulations

We will be following the latest guidance from the state of CT. Currently there are no capacity or distancing restrictions for an event like this. CT currently has one of the highest vaccination rates and lowest COVID rates in the country.

• As of August 13, masks are required at all times when inside regardless of vaccination status, per the City of Norwalk.
• If possible, get vaccinated. It's just a good idea in general.
