We've Got Seven Great Happenings To Tell You About This Week in Delaware and Maryland's Coastal Regions
Just one more week now until we hit Memorial Day Weekend 2021 and kick off the traditional summer season here at the Delaware and Maryland beaches.
And with the coronavirus situation continuing to improve and mask mandates becoming more relaxed every week, we're looking forward to a fantastic summer!
We've got seven great things to tell you about today in our next to last "Weekender" blog of May, most centered around the beach areas as we begin transitioning into the year's busiest season.
We invite you to keep reading and learn how you can have a pleasant and memorable weekend coming up. But we also want to preview something that's coming up on Friday, and that's a blog highlighting and showcasing a number of outdoor concerts that will be coming up over the next few months.
There are a number of venues that will be holding outdoor concerts this year and we're going to give you all you need to know moving forward. As a reminder, we did include the 2021 shows at the new Freeman Arts Pavilion in an earlier blog, which you can read here.
But that's coming up on Friday. For now, scroll below to learn about all that's happening during the weekend of May 21-23.
And plan for an incredible weekend here in the coastal region!
