Berlin Fair 2023: What You Need To Know
The annual tradition starts Thursday, Sept. 14, and continues to Sunday, Sept. 17, at the Berlin Fairgrounds.

BERLIN, CT — Organizers of the 74th annual Berlin Fair have one simple request for Mother Nature, which wreaked havoc on the state and the Berlin area Wednesday.
“Dear Mother Nature, get it all out today,” wrote the fair in the wake of Wednesday’s massive rainstorm. “We’ve got a fair tomorrow.”
And that they do, with one of the state’s most beloved traditions taking place from Thursday, Sept. 14, to Sunday, Sept. 17, at the fairgrounds, located at 430 Beckley Road, Berlin.

And, as always, the fair’s midway will provide folks with enough thrills to test their already-full stomachs.
