The View
Downtown Wilmington
If you’re looking for that perfect June getaway, The View is hard to beat. I love how you can step out onto the private balcony and catch those fiery sunsets painting the river—it’s the kind of peaceful moment that makes summer in Wilmington feel just right. Inside, the open layout and comfy coastal flair feel so relaxed and welcoming, like your own little downtown hideaway. Better yet, you’re just steps from the Riverwalk, great local bites, live music, and shopping—everything feels within easy reach on a sunny June evening.
What Is Happening in Wilmington
Here’s a little local scoop on three standout happenings in Wilmington this June that’ll make your beach-town stay feel extra alive:
Bluegrass in the Grove Fest
June 13 at 11:00 AM • Poplar Grove
There’s something so warm and easy about spending a Saturday at Poplar Grove, feet in the grass and toes tapping to live bluegrass and folk tunes all day long. You’ll catch local bands, traditional dancing, and even workshops where you can join in the fun, all wrapped up in that relaxed North Carolina heritage vibe.
Songs of Peace: A Juneteenth and Pride Celebration
June 19 at 6:00 PM • Waterline Brewing Co.
Imagine a breezy evening at Waterline Brewing, where live music, poetry, and speakers come together to celebrate both Juneteenth and Pride in one heartfelt gathering. It’s free, it’s community-rooted, and there’s local vendors and bites to enjoy while soaking up those peaceful, inclusive vibes.
Lord Huron in Concert
June 18 at 7:30 PM • Live Oak Bank Pavilion at Riverfront Park
A night under the stars by the Cape Fear River with Lord Huron’s dreamy, cinematic folk-rock sounds—there’s something about that setting that just feels magical. Expect to sway to “The Night We Met” and other favorites as the sun sets over downtown Wilmington.
