The “Gilmore Girls” fan festival is coming to Guilford this year.
It will be called “The Firelight Event” and it’s happening from Oct. 18 to 20.
As any fan of the show knows, “Gilmore Girls” was set in the fictional town of Stars Hollow, Connecticut. It is said to be inspired by an unexpected trip that Amy Sherman-Palladino made to Washington, Connecticut. Read more about that on E Online.
Washington even has a “Gilmore Girls Guide to the Real Stars Hollow” posted on its website. You can check that out here.

The website for the fan festival event says this is the same event that fans have been going to, just with a new name.
Part of the event will include meet and greets with people who were on the show or worked on it.
