Things to Do in Delaware

One of Delaware’s many claims to fame is its proximity to the site of the historic Woodstock music festival. That’s now the Bethel Woods Center for the Arts, and visitors can see a permanent exhibit on the magic of 1960s culture or catch live music in the outdoor amphitheater.

Canoeing, kayaking, rafting, tubing, and eagle-watching are on offer at the Upper Delaware Scenic and Recreational River. In the summer, you will find family-friendly programs from the Delaware Youth Center and a profusion of farmer’s markets based in communities up and down the river.

Ten minutes away in Callicoon, the “movie palace” Callicoon Theater—built in 1948—reigns as the oldest continually operated movie theater in Sullivan County. The single-screen, 100% digital theater continues to offer classic films as well as full premises rental for your most memorable events.
