NATICK, MA — The coronavirus pandemic will postpone the annual Natick Days festival in 2021. The Natick Days Event Committee voted in March to call off the planned September event. The 2020 event was also canceled because of the pandemic. The organizers, however, are hopeful the event will return in 2022. "We want you to know this decision was not made easily and was made with an abundance of thought and consideration for the community at large. While we are all disappointed, we are optimistic we will bring this wonderful annual event back to our community in 2022," Recreation and Parks Director Karen Partanen wrote in a memo to the Select Board recently. The parks and recreation department starting hosting the annual Natick Days festival in the late 1990s. The event, held downtown and on the common, featured food, games, entertainment and presentations by various service organizations around town.
