Here are a few amazing events near Metro on Crown that will keep you entertained throughout the beautiful autumn season.

The Durham Fair

Taking place September 22 through September 25, 2016, the Durham Agricultural Fair is a festivity not to be missed. A mere 30-minute drive away from Crown Street in New Haven, the Durham Fair has become a tradition for New Haven residents. The largest fair in Connecticut offers something for everyone, including rides and games (for kids and adults), animal competitions, and live entertainment. This year’s headliners include Foreigner and Old Dominion. Of course, you will also enjoy the mouthwatering, can-only-get-at-the-fair food, exhibits, and shopping galore.

The Haunted Isle

As it gets closer to Halloween, the Haunted Isle at the Shore Line Trolley is the place to be. It takes place in East Haven, just a hop, skip, and jump away from our Metro on Crown luxury apartments. The Haunted Isle runs every weekend from September 30 to October 30, 2016, and it will bring your worst nightmares to life. One lowly trolley will transport you through the dark tracks to the gate of the Haunted Isle, where you will then walk through a wooded path without a light in sight. Ghosts, goblins, and other creatures will be lurking in the shadows, waiting to pounce when you least expect it. But it is important to only enter if you dare, because there are no refunds for scaredy-cats.

This year it runs from October 20 through November 4, and you will want to plan ahead since reservations are strongly recommended.
