CTNOW – Events for Hartford and New Haven areas, powered by the Hartford Courant

Discover amazing local events, activities, bars, restaurants and unique offers in Connecticut. Buy tickets, plus share and create plans with friends right from our app.

We’re changing the way people find fun things to do in our city by making it easy to share what you want to do with friends. It's not another directory, review site, or daily deals service - it's about sharing incredible experiences with the people you love. Whether you're planning a date, hanging out with friends, seeing a movie, going to a concert, playing sports or organizing an adventure with the family, we have you covered – and it’s completely free to join. Remember, life moves pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
