Event Description
Join us for one of the Connecticut Shoreline's most beloved summer traditions! Each year, the Rotary Club of Guilford hosts LobsterFest at the Guilford Fairgrounds — an evening of delicious lobster rolls, live music, and community spirit.
Enjoy a fresh lobster roll dinner complete with sides and dessert, all prepared on-site by Guilford Rotarians. Every ticket includes beer from Two Roads Brewery and New England Brewery, wine, soft drinks, and water. Sit back, relax, and enjoy live music by the always-entertaining Take 3 while soaking in a perfect shoreline summer evening.
All proceeds support local nonprofits and neighbors in need, including the Guilford Food Bank, Meals on Wheels, Women and Family Life Center, Guilford Interfaith Volunteers, and more.
Come for the lobster rolls, stay for the fun — we'll see you there!
