Middletown is not only the geographic center of Connecticut, it has emerged as the regional destinations for arts, music, education, history, street festivals, outdoor recreation, and food. Nestled on the banks of the Connecticut River, and just a 20-minute drive to Hartford and 30-minute drive to New Haven, Middletown enjoys a vibrant downtown brimming with restaurants, cultural and entertainment venues, and benefits from the presence of nationally-acclaimed Wesleyan University. Among its many treasures are Main Street (named by the National Trust as America’s “Most Romantic Main Street”), Wadsworth Falls State Park, Harbor Park on the banks of the Connecticut River, the Middlesex County Historical Society, Davison Art Center, The Buttonwood Tree Performing Arts Center, and the Mattabesset multi-use trail.
