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.
