Sea Witch Festival

Next

The pattern
Late October — the Chamber publishes dates a year at a time and states no recurring rule
Years I've confirmed
2026

Rehoboth's Halloween weekend, with a costume parade, fiddlers, and the town at its busiest outside high summer. It lands after the beach dog ban lifts on 16 September, which makes it one of the few big weekends where dogs are legal on the sand.
