The Nanticoke Riverfest is almost here! This incredible festival is one of Delaware's most under-appreciated events. Everyone who attends is sure to return again, year after year, when they discover all that's been hiding from them this whole time. This year, the festival will held on Saturday, July 14, 2018 in Downtown Seaford, and it's Tiki Themed! Take a look at all you'll find at the fascinating river festival full of activities, games, contests and of course the Nanticoke Float In.
Pick out a rubber duck, decorate it, and maybe give it some swimming lessons...
... and then send it out to sea for the Rubber Duck Dash!
Kids get to test their skills with a fishing tournament which offers trophies to the winners.
Forget Greenwood - festival-goers agree that Seaford's Volunteer Fire Department makes the best grilled chicken in Delaware.
The Car Show always feels like a step back in time.
The festival also features live entertainment from some of Delaware's hottest bands.
The best part of the Nanticoke Riverfest is the "Float-In." Dozens of Delawareans drop in to the river to ride our own lazy river.
