Free Community Wi-Fi Initiative at Three City Locations. Inauguration: November 13, 2026 at 9am

Free Community Wi-Fi

The City of Stamford is expanding free public Wi-Fi access to help ensure that everyone in our community has greater access to the digital resources and opportunities that are increasingly part of everyday life.

Free Wi-Fi is now available at Cove Island Park, the Lathon Wider Community Center, and Old Town Hall, providing residents and visitors with convenient, reliable internet access at community spaces across the City.

Whether connecting to educational resources, searching for employment, accessing health and public services, completing everyday online tasks, or simply staying connected, the Community Wi-Fi initiative is designed to help reduce barriers to internet access and create more equitable opportunities for Stamford residents.

The initiative is part of Stamford's broader commitment to digital inclusion and equitable connectivity, ensuring that access to technology and online resources is available to members of our community regardless of income, background, or circumstance. This reflects the goal of reducing the burden of internet costs and expanding opportunities for connection, participation, and advancement.
