Evening Under the Strawberry Moon: A Taste of Glastonbury
Saturday June 23, 6-10:00 pm (rain date June 30)
Town Center Green
Consistent with our mission of promoting the Town Center as an eclectic, pedestrian friendly center of community life, we begin our summer event series with An Evening Under the Strawberry Moon – Taste of Glastonbury on June 23rd . Main Street and Hebron Avenue will be closed to traffic around the Fountain Green to allow for dancing in the streets, while Glastonbury Restaurants highlight a variety of their best food for diners to purchase.
TCI sells wine and beer at the Strawberry Moon event to cover the cost of the evening along with sponsor support. TCI supports the business community – Restaurants keep 100% of the proceeds of what they sell. PLEASE NOTE: The event is not BYOB.
