We’ve listed many A&E events below but there are lots more where they come from! Our many theaters, concert venues, bandstand performances, art leagues, galleries, and arts events will keep you entertained throughout the month.
And, if you’re a cyclist or a paddler, you’ll want to check out our Bike and Stay or Paddle and Stay packages. Travel our land and water trails and unlock your inner adventurer and some great deals at the same time!
Finally, it’s time to start planning your Southern Delaware fall road trips. Our many events and festivals plus crisp sea breezes and tax-free shopping make for great visits!
