Seaboard Hamlet Festival

All aboard for the Hamlet Seaboard Festival! This annual celebration, which is Richmond County’s largest, honors the city’s heritage as a railroad town. Started in 1982 as a railroad memorabilia display on Main Street, the festival became so popular that it grew into an annual event.

Held on the last Saturday in October, the Seaboard Festival features impressive crafts, delicious food and activities for the whole family, including magicians and fun runs.
