Colonial Topsail

Colonial Topsail helped kick off America’s 250th anniversary today with a day of free, family-friendly fun in Topsail Beach, NC!

The community celebration brought history to life with reenactors, hands-on demonstrations, engaging speakers, and a festive tea party—plus lunch for attendees.

Families, locals, and visitors experienced the stories that shaped our nation, right here along the coast, as we begin the countdown to America’s 250th anniversary.

The event featured children’s activities, guest speakers, a “tea party” on the Intracoastal Waterway, reenactors and more.
