This year’s Cypress Festival, Wednesday June 12 to Saturday June 15, will celebrate Pocomoke’s heritage as a shipbuilding town. 

Board the skipjack Hilda Willing, built in 1905 and learn about this historic working boat from her crew.

Join in the fun by building your own boat and racing with a team for cash and bragging rights in the Raft Regatta. 

This year’s Cypress Festival will have more artists and vendors than ever, especially for Heritage Saturday when artisans from Furnace Town and the Julia Purnell Museum along with local crafters will have hands-on demonstrations.

All your favorite rides and foods will be there too! Come join our “boathemian” community for 4 days of fun by the Pocomoke River, Wednesday June 12 to Saturday June 15.
