Norwalk Seaport Association's 2026 Season Kickoff Event on April 14th!
Don’t miss the Norwalk Seaport Association’s 2026 Season Kickoff Event on Tuesday, April 14th at Spacecat Brewing in Norwalk!
Please join us for an exciting evening as the Norwalk Seaport Association officially launches its 2026 season! After a long winter, there’s no better way to shake off the cold than by gathering with fellow maritime enthusiasts, reconnecting with old friends, and making some new ones in the heart of Norwalk’s vibrant community.
The evening will be held at the always-welcoming Spacecat Brewing, one of Norwalk’s favorite local gathering spots, setting the perfect relaxed and lively atmosphere for a night of great conversation, great food, and great company.
While you’re there, treat yourself to chef-driven appetizers prepared by Harbor Harvest, known for their fresh, locally inspired cuisine. Pair that with your choice of craft beer, wine, or hard cider — each ticket includes two drink tickets so you can sit back, relax, and enjoy the evening in style.
But this isn’t just a social night out — it’s your first look at everything the Norwalk Seaport Association has in store for 2026, and there’s plenty to be excited about! Our team will be sharing highlights from the upcoming cruise and special event schedule, giving you the inside scoop on what’s coming to Long Island Sound this season. We’ll also be unveiling exciting new renovation projects underway at the historic Sheffield Island Lighthouse, a beloved landmark that has stood as a cornerstone of Norwalk’s maritime heritage for generations.
Of course, no NSA season preview would be complete without a look ahead to the 2026 Norwalk Oyster Festival — one of Connecticut’s most celebrated annual events and a signature tradition that draws thousands of visitors to our beautiful shoreline each year. We’ll have details on this year’s festival plans that you won’t want to miss.
We’ll also be introducing new membership levels designed to give supporters more ways than ever to get involved and stay connected with the Norwalk Seaport Association’s mission. Whether you’re a longtime member or considering joining for the first time, this is the perfect opportunity to learn how your support helps preserve and celebrate Norwalk’s rich maritime culture and history.
Speaking of getting involved — if you’ve ever thought about volunteering with an organization that truly makes a difference in the community, we’d love to talk with you. The Norwalk Seaport Association has been a proud fixture of this community since 1978, and our volunteers are the backbone of everything we do, from running lighthouse tours to staffing festival events and everything in between.
Space is strictly limited to 100 guests, so we strongly encourage you to purchase your tickets early to guarantee your spot.
Tickets are $40 per person and include two drink tickets (beer, wine, and hard ciders) plus a delicious spread of appetizers.
Mark your calendars, grab your tickets, and get ready to kick off the 2026 season in style. We hope to “sea” you there on
