Riverfest returns to Downtown Wilmington

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — The Riverfest is back in Downtown Wilmington.

The event, originally scheduled for October, was delayed due to Hurricane Matthew.

But the fun was able to go on this weekend.

Guests were able to experience live music, shopping and some fun for the kids.

Of all the excitement, one thing stood out as a fan favorite.

“The food and just to see all the fun stuff,” Sara Pardee of Wilmington said. “You see unusual stuff here that you don’t see in stores and it’s just to be out and walk around the river.”

The festival began on Friday night and ran through the weekend.
