What’s Going On? Rehoboth Beach, Activities, Events, Entertainment…It’s March!! Delaware Beaches, Southern Delaware, Sussex County
This historical marker is found at the end of Rehoboth Avenue, right by the Bandstand and the award-winning Boardwalk. Then, it’s the Atlantic Ocean. I read it all the time..since 1873, then, the railroad came in 1878. In 1891 Rehoboth Beach was named Cape Henlopen City, then to be formally changed in 1893. And, the rest it’s history. Rehoboth Beach is known as the Nation’s Summer Capital.

Saturday, 3/2 – The much awaited Chocolate Festival is finally here!! Besides being the Chocolate Festival, this week-end opens a lot of establishments. They are looking forward to a good and prosperous 2013 season. The Chocolate Festival will be held only for one day; Saturday. Location? The Rehoboth Beach Convention Center right on Rehoboth Avenue in Downtown Rehoboth Beach. 11:30 until 3:30 p.m., or until the chocolate runs out. You can purchase tickets ahead of time. I did; only $2 admission. You can also purchase them at the door…..the line might be a little long. That admission gives you one tasting. You can buy more for 50 cents each. No carry out is permitted. Children under 5 get in free!!
This is the 23rd year and apparently the baking contest will feature more restaurant entries than ever before!! There will be chocolate, of course, tastes galore, definitely, vendors, a raffle, kids games and much more. For more information, please visit http://www.downtownrehoboth.com. Even though the festival is only one day, the Rehoboth Beach establishments will be honoring the chocolate festival with themed specials throughout the week-end.
