AMAZING!! Great for kids of all ages, safety for me was not an issue. Everything was explained very thoroughly when we went in, all staff helpful and kind. My 9 and 11 year old had an amazing time!! Also, very affordable with it costing $24 a child including shoes and safety harness! It's also a day pass, so if you go in the morning, you can go back later the same day! Drinks available, did not see food, so leaving for lunch to rest your hands is a total bonus! Kids had so much fun, which of course made for a very happy mama!!

Fairfield Theater Company

Established in 2004, StageOne is a 225 seat venue in the heart of downtown Fairfield, Connecticut. Originally built primarily for theatre productions, StageOne is consistently voted as the best place to hear live music in the entire region because of the quality of the sound, the intimacy of the space, and the caliber of the artists. There is literally not a bad seat in the house and there are few venues in the country where the fans can be so close to the world-renowned artists who grace the stage in over 200 concerts and productions a year. The artists love to perform here and frequently cite StageOne as their absolute favorite venue. This brings out the very best in them, which is reflected in the quality of their performances and enjoyment of their fans.

Came in from out of state to see a favorite band on StageOne. Excellent seats all around and small size gave the feeling of an intimate concert. Good staff, great bar, fast service. Easy to get to and in the heart of Fairfield. Wish we had an FTC.

Walsh Art Gallery

The Thomas J. Walsh Art Gallery opened its doors in April 1990 under Founding Director and Professor of Art History, Dr. Philip Eliasoph. Its inaugural exhibition was, "Defining Modernism: Art of the 20th Century." In a review by the New York Times, Vivien Raynor wrote: "With this exhibition, the Walsh assumes a missionary role that is not inappropriate for a Jesuit campus, even though the word brought is not of God."

Sasco Beach

Reviewed By SailSunJay - Fairfield, United States

The third largest town beach that you can swim at even at low tide. The beach is more remote than the main beach, at the end of Sasco Hill Road. Limited parking and may be full on weekends. Because it is more remote it is more laid-back and quite.
