WILMER – The City of Wilmer marked its almost 40th year hosting its annual Pioneer Days festival with as many as 2,000 attendees during the three days of festivities.

The festival included carnival rides, live music and a wide range of food and vendors offering something for everyone. 

A local Dunkin Donuts truck was even on hand, having driven all the way from Pennsylvania. 

Held in Wilmer’s City Square Hall, the area was turned into a festival for all and hosted by the family team of DJK-Sprinkles each day. The music was a combination of local celebrities and cultural dance enjoyed by all. 

“We are ready for another exciting Pioneer Days celebration,” said Wilmer Mayor Sheila Petta before the weekend began. 

“The family-friendly festival is for all ages making it an ideal destination for all visitors to enjoy the carnival, listen to a fantastic music line-up, and the many vendors who will be on-hand during the three days. It is sure to be an event that the family will remember all year.”
