Greetings from Greater New Haven

What's Happening in September

The New Haven Grand Prix

9/14, 4:00-10:00 p.m.

New Haven Green

From an impressive lineup of professional and amateur cyclists vying for honors, to live entertainment and the bustling Apizza & Eats Feast Expo Area, this isn’t your ordinary bike race or street festival. It’s an extravaganza that highlights all of New Haven’s greatest aspects – It’s food, it’s nightlight, and it’s cycling and pedestrian friendly vibrancy. Last year 15,000 spectators came to witness what has become the city’s most anticipated late summer event. Don’t miss your chance to be a part of it in 2018.

Apizza Feast tickets: $5 per person. See website for family discounts. Pre-order your tickets today!
