Due to Connecticut River conditions, Riverfest has been postponed. Charlie Myers, Riverfront Recapture’s Director of Events and Programs, says “strong river current and heavy floating debris in the river made it impossible to safely launch and secure the three barges from which the fireworks would have been shot.”
Because the fireworks will not be happening on July 6th, neither will the Real Ride. The free bicycle tour of Hartford had planned one of its stops around the fireworks display.
The new dates for these events have not yet been announced.
