Time Zone Note: Most festival days will begin at 10:00AM Eastern Daylight Time (EDT) and end around 9:00PM EDT, with approximately four to six events per day for festival composers. All Connecticut Summerfest events will take place in EDT (US), and breaks are scheduled throughout each day. If a festival composer is joining us from a distant time zone and will have difficulty virtually attending certain events, we will work with them to explore asynchronous options where possible.
