Delmarva Chicken Festival

 


SATURDAY, OCTOBER 7

1 - 7PM

PERDUE STATION, SALISBURY

Admission is free.  Festival features include food vendors, open air marketplace, kids activities, Miss Delmarva Chicken Festival Pageant, "Walk Through History" tent, and performances by The Jones Boys Band, Jimmy Charles, and Mike Hines & The Look. 

When the festival first made its' appearance in Pocomoke City in the early 1950's it was a multi-day event highlighted by a festival parade with homemade floats, chicken cooked in the world's largest frying pan, and the National Chicken Cooking Contest at the armory which drew national press attention.
