Live blues, comedy shows, retro dance parties, and open mic nights are held every night of the week at loud but fun Daniel Street (21 Daniel St., Milford, 203/877-4446, www.danielstreetclub.com [1]).
Dads have a reason to celebrate during the Branford Festival (www.branfordfestival.com [2], June), a three-day celebration filled with music, food, and a road race every Father’s Day weekend.
During the holidays, Milford ups the cuteness quotient with Christmas Candlelight House Tours (Wharf Ln., Milford, 203/874-2664, early Dec.) of the village’s historic homes, which are decked out for the season. Expect carols and hot drinks.
