Summer may be over, but the excitement is just beginning as Hartford-area college students return to campus. What better way to kick off the new school year than with a celebration?

Join the Hartford Chamber of Commerce, in partnership with Hartford Young Professionals & Entrepreneurs (HYPE) and the City of Hartford, for Hartford College Fest on September 24 from 2:00 to 6:00 p.m.

Help welcome students back by joining us on Pratt Street for an afternoon of great food, live entertainment, games, and a vibrant lineup of vendors and local businesses. Most importantly: wear your school colors and rep your campus!
