Good Morning Wilmington

As the first hints of autumn breeze through our coastal town, we begin to notice the early signs of the season - Halloween costumes adorning store aisles, the aroma of pumpkin spice wafting through our favorite cafes and stores, and the gentle cooling of the weather. It's that time of year when the vibrant tapestry of fall begins to unfurl. But amidst these familiar cues of the season, one tradition stands out, beckoning us to dust off our lederhosen, practice the chicken dance, and prepare for a celebration like no other - Oktoberfest! Wilmington is gearing up for a series of beer-fueled gatherings that promise camaraderie, lively music, and a whole lot of fun. So, mark your calendars and get ready to raise your stein at these upcoming Oktoberfest events. Prost! 🍻🎉🇩🇪
