SHELTON, CT — Shelton Day 2025, a popular event featuring food, local vendors, live music and more, will be held this fall at Veterans Memorial Park.

According to a news release provided by the Derby-Shelton Rotary Club, the organizer of the event, Shelton Day 2025 will take place Oct. 5 and continue a tradition of bringing the Shelton community together.

Shelton Day 2025 promises "a fun-filled day with Shelton families, delicious food, local vendors, children's activities and live music," according to the release.
