Wilmington NC RiverFest performing from 7:30pm-8:30pm
October 4
Celebrated on the first full weekend of October, the Riverfest runs through Historic Downtown Wilmington, NC. Currently drawing tens of thousands of people, this free, family-oriented celebration is a two-day event and has grown to be a widely anticipated annual celebration. Riverfest was created in February 1979, by a group of Wilmingtonians interested in showcasing downtown Wilmington and the Cape Fear River and has since resulted in a cultural street festival that entices locals and tourists alike to our amazing Historic Downtown.
