MILFORD, Del. (Oct. 15, 2025) — Milford’s annual Community Parade is set for Wednesday evening, bringing local families and visitors to Walnut Street for one of southern Delaware’s hallmark fall events.
Organized by Milford Community Parades, Inc., the parade will begin at 6:30 p.m., continuing a tradition that started in 1938 under then-Mayor Edward Evans. While originally Halloween-themed, the parade now showcases the city’s history and community spirit. This year, floats, marching bands, and civic units will follow the 2025 theme, “It’s Game Time!”
Spectators from across Kent and Sussex counties are expected to arrive early as city agencies and volunteers coordinate road closures and logistics along the 1.7-mile route. Local sponsors, including Wilson’s Auction Sales, Burris Logistics, Sunbelt Rentals, Sussex Sanitation, and TV Delmarva Channel 33, are supporting the event by providing float trophies, sanitation services, and other resources.
The Milford Community Parade remains one of Delaware’s largest community parades. Admission is free, and organizers expect the event to benefit downtown restaurants and shops as the autumn festival season ramps up. Community members are encouraged to arrive early and allow time for parking. City officials said downtown closures will begin in the late afternoon, affecting Walnut Street and nearby access routes until the parade concludes around 8:30 p.m.
For those unable to attend in person, TV Delmarva will broadcast the parade live from The Milford Church of God parking lot. The event can also be viewed on TV Delmarva Channel 33, TV Delmarva’s Roku channel (search for TV Delmarva), online at tvdelmarva.com, and on the TV Delmarva Facebook page.
