This time last year, we announced our first annual summer photo contest and received over 300 submissions! Thanks to its success we’re at it again...
Enter our 2022 #VisitWilm Summer Photo Contest for your chance to win a Family Getaway to the beautiful Brandywine Valley.
Featured prizes include:
A 2023 Brandywine Treasure Trail Family Passport –this provides admission for two adults and up to three children under 17 to 12 of the area’s top attractions.
A two-night stay at one of the area’s finest hotels, just a stone’s throw from local restaurants and tax-free shopping!
We want your best photos taken along the Brandywine Treasure Trail – a collection of 12 amazing attractions throughout the Brandywine Valley – see all 12 here. Whether you are hiking along the trails at Mt. Cuba Center or visiting the Delaware History Museum, we want to see your pics. But, if you're exploring through #VisitWilm without the Passport and find yourself inspired... we want to see those photos too! Feel free to enter as many images as you like from anywhere in the Wilmington and Brandywine Valley area! There is no limit. Submissions will be accepted July 15, 2022 – October 31, 2022.

About Jessica: Moving to Delaware at ten years old gifted me the opportunity to grow under the lights of the city, the serenity of the country, and everything in between. I would have never thought that so many fun and interesting attractions could be packed into such a small state. I love to travel, take pictures, and experience new adventures just like you, reading this now. I can promise you new adventures happen every day in the First State. Follow along with my blogs and see for yourself why Delaware is small, but mighty!
