Vendors will be lined up along North Front Street and there will be food trucks in the Cape Fear Community College parking lot. 

Wilmington Riverfest President Roderick Bell says he hopes to have another great turnout for this year’s Riverfest. 

“We just want the, uh, the community to come out, and again, we pray for not to have rain, but come out and have fun and enjoy the activities,” said Bell. 

This is the 46th year for Wilmington Riverfest. 

Both days will feature a street fair, car display, kid zone, band performances, and a BMX bike show.
