Get Ready for the 31st Annual Apple Scrapple Festival!

This weekend is our 31st Annual Apple Scrapple Festival in downtown Bridgeville – For all things Apple Scrapple related – check out their website here – https://www.applescrapple.com/

You can find schedules, information on featured events, and maps. At the bottom of the page is an interactive MapHub map that shows you the festival layout, as well as the designated parking areas.

PLEASE NOTE that parking has changed for this year’s festival –

Parking As many of you know, the large lot on the south side of town near Heritage Shores is now being developed, so we have had to make some changes. We want first to thank the Heritage Shores developer Allen & Rocks/Brookfield, Murtaza family business, and Kenny Brothers Produce for their many years of support for allowing us to park in their fields. This year, we have north and west parking lots. The north lot is located on Adams Road, off Newton Road (Thank you, Newton Farms and future Bosch Berries!), and the handicapped lot is the same: Woodbridge Phillis Wheatley Elementary School. The west lot is located at 8100 Seashore Highway (thank you, AMP Electric), and the west handicapped lot is located at 7046 Seashore Highway (thank you, Lifeway Church of God)!

The website and the map at the bottom of the web page have been updated. Please take a moment to familiarize yourself, and please remember that we want to park you as quickly and safely as possible. Please be considerate and know we are working hard to make this an enjoyable festival experience.

If you a local resident living in the area of the festival and in need of an alley pass – please contact the Bridgeville Public Library. https://www.bridgevillelibrary.com/

Directions & Parking Lots

Street Lights Added Some other recent changes that you may have noticed: we did a safety walkthrough of Downtown with Delmarva Power and had some street lights added to help the darker areas around the festival and other events near the fire hall (like Halloween!).  Two new lights were added on Delaware Ave, some improvements on S. Cannon near Delaware Ave., and lighting was added near the old Police Station on Market Street, where the port-a-potties are usually located.  The lights are also LED, which will be the kickoff to a percentage of lights converted to LED each year. We will focus on the S. Cannon and Delaware intersection and radiate outwards from there.

Yard Sale Info and Test Run During the Town Wide Yard Sale on October 7, 2023, the Apple Scrapple Committee held a test run for the upcoming Apple Scrapple Festival in the Bridgeville Public Library Parking Lot. This year, the committee will have its own food booth and sell unique Apple and Scrapple-specific items – including Scrapple Fries, Scrapple and Gouda Egg Rolls, an Apple Walking Cake, and an Apple Bread Pudding. We tested the Scrapple fries and egg rolls on Saturday –they were a hit! So don’t miss an opportunity to stop by their booth at the food court this weekend!
