Celebrate Darien at Chamber Jam, Darien’s Town Wide Music & Food Festival on October 8th at The Gardener’s Center

The Darien Chamber of Commerce is asking everyone to come out and celebrate Darien at Chamber Jam, Darien’s Town Wide Music & Food Festival on October 8th at The Gardener’s Center.

Tickets are on sale now at www.darienCTchamber.com or on the town app, Live Darien CT. Funds raised will benefit the Chamber and the Darien Chamber Charitable Foundation’s initiatives including Darien’s downtown holiday lights and college scholarship program.

Headlining the evening is musical guest, The Spadtastics, a Darien local favorite. The self-proclaimed, “World’s Worst-Named Grateful Dead Cover Band”, say they try to make up for it in other ways, and we can promise you they do! They are more than just a cover band, they’re veterans of locally legendary bands and certified Diamond Platinum Status Masters of the Dead.

Keeping in the theme of “local”, opening band, Waller, is led by another local favorite, James “Waller” Crafford, who like many of The Spadtastic’s, also got his start at Darien High School.

Local food vendors and trucks will be on-site including Parlor Pizza, Michael Joseph’s, Fjord Fish Market, Darien Butcher Shop and Bodega. Beverages will be served by Union Wine Co., Two Roads Brewing Co., and Michael Joseph’s.

Darien’s fire departments will have a presence bridging the American flag over the Post Road using their trucks and ladders as people enter The Gardener’s Center. The lot will be cleared, and the stage will be set for hundreds of people to enjoy live music, eat delicious food, and dance the night away! We hope you join the fun!

Gates open at 6pm, 21+ only. Please visit check-in when you arrive to pick up your wrist band and purchase a raffle ticket. Raffle tickets offer a chance to win His & Hers Daily Riding Bicycles donated by the Darien Chamber Board of Directors and provided by Danny’s Cycles and a $500 gift certificate plus 1-hour consultation with The Gardener’s Center.

Follow @darienctchamber for announcements. Parking will be available at Thorndale Circle, we strongly encourage ride sharing. Uber drop off/pick up is located at Nielsen’s.
