Cowabunga, Dover! Get ready for a totally tubular weekend of pizza, movies, skateboarding, and plenty of turtle-powered fun!

While you’re downtown for Cowabunga Fest, be sure to take part in the Cowabunga Scavenger Hunt. Turtles will be hiding in the windows of shops, restaurants, and other businesses throughout our walkable downtown. See how many you can find while exploring local businesses, grabbing a bite to eat, and discovering someplace new along the way!

The fun continues throughout the weekend:

🎬 Friday, August 21 | 8–10 p.m.
Family Movie Night at Henry Law Park
Bring your blankets and lawn chairs for a free outdoor screening of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: The Secret of the Ooze.

🍕 Saturday, August 22 | 11 a.m.–6 p.m.
Cowabunga Fest in downtown Dover
Enjoy the Pizza Crawl, Pizza Fest hosted by OTTO in the Cocheco Courtyard, TMNT-themed crafts and mask-making, the downtown scavenger hunt, cosplay, shopping, raffles, prizes, and family-friendly activities.

🛹 Sunday, August 23 | 2–6 p.m.
Skate Jam at the Dover Skate Park
Close out the weekend with skateboarding, live music, demonstrations, and plenty of good vibes.

Cowabunga Fest celebrates Dover’s special place in comic book history as the birthplace of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Come downtown, support our local businesses, find some turtles, grab a slice, and enjoy a weekend that is uniquely Dover!

End of an era 😔 We appreciate Empty Pint Brewing Company support for Dover Main Street and the Run Before You Crawl 5K & Pub Crawl with their annual IPA. Ryan and his crew was always there for us and stepped up during COVID to offer every crawler a 4pk of beers when there was no crawl to be had 🍻 We wish you success on your next endeavor and hope your craft continues to entice and amaze, whatever it may be. Love and hugs from the entire Dover Community ❤️
