Swansboro 55th Annual Mullet Festival
October 12, 2009 – 9:49 pmThe town of Swansboro held it annual mullet festival. The weather cooperated for the event being held in its 55th year. The streets were filled with people, tents, food and activities. The music could be heard from blocks and the intracoastal waterway filled with boats.
The festival started over fifty years ago as a celebration for the bridge across the white oak river. At the festival you can order mullet grilled, fried, smoked, stewed etc. and see tons of arts and crafts. Although rain drops were felt throughout the weekend, they did not keep local or tourists form enjoying parade, bands, dancing and food. This years festival proved to be yet another success.
