The 'Delmarva Chicken Festival' is an annual event sponsored by
Delmarva Poultry Industry, Inc. The two-day event hosted in various locales on
Delmarva features trade shows, arts and crafts, carnival, entertainment, and food concessions. Chicken is, of course, the featured food, but
boardwalk fries, corn-on-the-cob,
funnel cake,
ice cream,
kettle corn, and fresh-squeezed
lemonade are other local favorites. Nearly three tons of
chicken are cooked each year in the world's largest
frying pan. The pan made its debut at the second annual festival in 1950. The 58th Annual Delmarva Chicken Festival takes place June 22rd and 23th, 2007 in
Federalsburg, Maryland,
United States.
