Are you ready to next-level your annual Gilmore Girls rewatch?

If you’ve ever wished you could stroll Stars Hollow’s sidewalks, munch on diner-style treats or greet Luke at the counter, now’s your chance. A Weekend in the Life: Small Town Convention is rolling into New Milford, Connecticut—about an hour and 40 minutes from NYC—from Friday, September 12, through Sunday, September 14, and this Gilmore Girls event is more than just a convention. It’s a full-on, small-town immersion into what makes the show one of TV’s most beloved cozy universes.

RECOMMENDED: The Dawson’s Creek cast is having a big NYC reunion next month and we are not okay

Hosted by Decade Days, this fan festival brings the series’ beloved characters, coffees and quirks to life. Notable cast members appearing include Scott Patterson (Luke Danes), Scott Cohen (Max Medina), Matt Czuchry (Logan Huntzberger), Yanic Truesdale (Michel), Todd Lowe (Zack Van Gerbig), John Cabrera (Brian Fuller), Sherilyn Fenn (Anna Nardini) and more. (Alas, none of the titular Gilmore Girls—a.k.a. Lauren Graham, Alexis Bledel or Kelly Bishop—seem to be participating.)

Look for a lot of fan-friendly moments, including autograph and photo ops, Q&As, themed bingo and trivia, craft areas and a vendor marketplace full of merch, homemade goods and nostalgic delights. VIP ticket holders get extra perks like private meet-and-greets, special parties and chances to connect more personally with cast members.

Just like Lorelai and Rory, this event can’t be confined. Events take place throughout New Milford at the Town Hall, the local library and the Connecticut Sports Arena (CSA). There’s just something extra magical about seeing characters land in small cultural landmarks rather than in big convention centers. Honestly, it just feels more Gilmore.

Tickets start at $49.77, with VIP upgrades raising the ante for those looking for picture-perfect moments or more intimate fan interactions. Click here to buy your passes.

Stay awhile if you can: New Milford and its surrounding towns are made for fans seeking more than just autograph lines. Consider lodging at local inns like Rocky River Inn or Homestead Inn or go all out at the Mayflower Inn in nearby Washington Depot (which, fun fact, served as inspiration for the show). And through it all, luxuriate in the fact that you’re doing it alongside fellow Gilmore Girl fans.

And if you miss this one, don’t worry: Another Gilmore Girls-themed happening, The Firelight Event, is planned in Guilford, CT for October 17-19.
