Crisfield is a peaceful little working waterman’s town at the very end of the Chesapeake Country All American Road on the Eastern Shore of Maryland that is known for crabs, ducks and it likes to do things BIG! 

Inspired by the World’s Largest Rubber Duck visit, this year’s July 25-27th BIG Little Townfest will feature many entertaining events for all to enjoy starting at the beautiful shores of American Legion Post #16 and Wellington Beach along Crisfield’s scenic waterfront.  Along with the main attraction that you can see all 3 days, Friday will be for “early birds” with heritage events, seniors discount entry fee and scavenger hunts.  On Saturday there will be another world record attempt for the most “duck dogs” (Golden, Labrador and Chesapeake Bay Retrievers–other duck loving dogs are invited, too!) with beach swims, boat rides and scavenger hunts through town.  Festival enthusiasts will enjoy delicious food and drinks on the picturesque waterfront along with uniquely crafted items from vendors, music at the beach and live classic rock acts at Somers Cove Marina..  Jeep owners and motorcycle riders will have special “Poker Runs” collecting marked duck cards at various popular establishments along a choice of two fantastic Lower Eastern Shore routes ending at Crisfield’s American Legion.  The entire event is family friendly with kids under 12 free and a fun beach party for children and youth on Sunday.  Military/Legionnaire ID gets you into all event areas for free as well–thank you for your service! 

Whether you are planning on a day trip or are looking to stay overnight and really enjoy a quality, but economical weekend on the shore of the Chesapeake Bay, you will be treated like a guest in our home while feeling great about supporting disabled veterans with service dogs and community projects made possible through Friends of Crisfield, a nonprofit 501(c).  

​Please bring CASH with you since many vendors, some admittance fees and donations will only be in cash.
