SUMMARY:2021 Harrington Festival & Fireworks - Cancelled
DESCRIPTION:Regrettably\, because of the COVID-19 pandemic the Chamber of Commerce committee has determined it is unable to stage the Harrington Festival and Fireworks that would otherwise have run on January 1st 2021. We know that locals and visitors will be disappointed. However\, the Chamber cannot risk placing the safety of its volunteers supporting the event\, and those attending\, in jeopardy. We hope the Festival will be able to continue in 2022.
