Abundant seafood prepped by the award-winning BRBR culinary team will be served. Brazilian guitarist, Rafael, Whitney Pearsall and the Dylan Holton Band entertain.
Kids events this year will be from 4-6 p.m and include interactive events from the North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher, T-shirt painting led by local artist and Wrightsville Beach School marine science instructor Cissie Brooks and a Halloween costume contest.
