BAD Day - Music and Arts Festival

Brooklyn Arts Center, Downtown Wilmington

Jul 12th

Overview

We’re taking over Wilmington’s Brooklyn Arts District (BAD) for a full day and night of world-class music, immersive art, and vibrant culture.


The inaugural installment of BAD Day will feature two outdoor stages that will set the soundtrack with an eclectic mix of bluegrass, funk, reggae, house, and beyond—headlined by the legendary Railroad Earth, Yonder Mountain String Band, and Daniel Donato’s Cosmic Country + many more TBA.


Later in the night, the energy shifts to an evening celebration at The Eagle’s Dare, featuring a third outdoor stage and an indoor afterparty featuring a legendary lineup of national acts. 


Beyond the music, explore the closed streets of the Brooklyn Arts District, transformed into a bustling festival village with:


☀️ Arts & crafts vendors, pop-ups, and galleries showcasing local and regional talent

☀️ Live mural painting by celebrated and emerging artists

☀️ Tributes to Wilmington’s legendary film scene, celebrating the city’s cinematic roots

☀️ Incredible food & beverage options from Wilmington’s best local eateries

☀️ Wellness experiences like yoga and breathwork to elevate your festival vibes


From street-side creativity to late-night revelry, BAD Day is here to celebrate the dynamic spirit of the Brooklyn Arts District and redefine what a downtown festival can be.
