Each year at the end of July, the colors red, white, and green fill downtown Southington in celebration of the town’s Italian-American Festival. Southington’s 18th annual Italian-American Festival will be held from Friday, July 28 to Sunday, July 30 on lower Center Street.

Organized by the Sons of Italy, UNICO Club of Southington, and Sorelle d’Italia in America, this year’s festival will feature musical entertainment, fireworks, an Italian Mass, a children’s carnival, and many food options.
