Old Saybrook Chili Fest

About

The 29th annual Old Saybrook Chili Fest takes place along Main Street in March, featuring 17 local chefs competing in a chili cook-off. Attendees vote by sampling all registered chilis — a minimum of 10 tastes required for your ballot to count. Proceeds benefit the Chamber's C. Wilfred Hunter Memorial Scholarship, and top three winners direct donations to charities of their choice.
