Book your stay at JUST BREATHE today and I will help you plan an amazing weekend celebrating Spring in style at Nantucket's Annual Daffodil Festival!
My favorite time on year on Nantucket is the off season. There are still many restaurants and shops open, and of course the ocean and sunset are just as beautiful.
April is a time on the island, where the weather is getting warmer, and the shop owners are preparing their boutiques inside and out wether buying new merchandise or painting the white trim or fence out front for the upcoming season. Restaurants are preparing their seasonal menus and Cisco Brewery is brewing up a special seasonal beer or spirit!
April 24-26, 2020 is Nantucket's Annual Daffodil Weekend. Have you ever been? If not, you must! The hype starts before you even leave your house to make the trek to the island. You prepare a picnic lunch and cocktails for the ferry ride over, maybe some yellow clothing or daffodil hat for the weekend festivities, everyone gets in the spirit.
Starting in the 70's as a simple car show, and now decades later, the Daffodil Festival on Nantucket includes art shows, tours, parades (including the antique car parade and tailgate picnic), exhibitions, contests, lectures, and, of course, the annual Nantucket Daffodil Flower Show. There are activities for all ages, and faithful festival-goers dress up for the occasion and participate enthusiastically! The Nantucket Island Chamber of Commerce organizes a Daffy Hat Contest, a Children's Parade featuring decorated bikes, strollers, wagons, and other self-propelled vehicles, the Antique Car Parade, a window decorating contest, the famous Sconset Tailgate Picnic, a Family Picnic at Children’s Beach, and more! The Pine Woods Morris Dancers often perform throughout the day at various locations.
The tailgate picnic in Siasconset that follows the Antique Car Parade is a favorite among everyone who attends this Nantucket festival. Picnics can be elaborately staged or simple and casual.
Here is the calendar of events for the weekend
