City around

Welcome To Wilmington, NC

Learn About Southern Culture and Charm in Wilmington, NC

The historic city grew along the south-eastern coast of the state and along the Cape Fear River. The picturesque downtown area features a one-mile Riverwalk. The scenic beauty of the community led to Wilmington being used for the filming of many popular TV shows including Dawson's Creek, One Tree Hill, Sleepy Hollow and Under the Dome. Visitors have the chance to tour many historic locations and museums or attend cultural arts venues.

Things To Do

During one of the first weekends in May, prominent chefs and vintners present samples of their products during the annual Wilmington Wine and Food Festival. The world-class event brings participants from around the planet for a chance to win spectator votes.

The end of May brings automotive fans out for the annual Rims on the River event. Hundreds of vehicles dated older than 1980 go on display during the weekend festival. There is also live entertainment and refreshments.

BBQ champions from across the country cook up a mouth-watering feast for the annual Port City Ribfest in August. Waterfront Park serves as the event destination, which also promises to include unusual live entertainment.

Every December, the Poplar Grove Plantation dons its holiday finery for the Christmas Festival. Throughout the month the venue offers candlelit tours of the property along with refreshments and an arts, crafts and gifts show.
