Discover Greater Wilmington
& the Brandywine Valley

Are you ready to discover Wilmington and the Brandywine Valley? 

There’s lots to see and do. We’re a place of history and beauty that’s hidden in plain sight, right off Interstate 95. 

Wilmington and the Brandywine Valley encompasses the entirety of New Castle County, which is Delaware’s largest and northernmost county. We’re steeped in rich American history, diverse culture and breathtaking gardens. Many of our historical and outdoor attractions are rooted in the legacy of the du Pont family or the Underground Railroad and Civil Rights struggle. More recently, a new generation has infused the area with a hip restaurant and craft beer scene, music venues, a vibrant riverfront, outdoor adventure, and a nearly year-round festival season. 

On the pages linked below, you’ll find an overview of the area, a wide selection of potential story ideas and a calendar of annual events to cover. So go ahead and explore those links or download our digital Media Kit
