The Bethany-Fenwick Area Chamber of Commerce will hold its 2026 Summer Nights experience alongside the 2026 Senior League Softball World Series in Frankford, Delaware, beginning August 3.
The 2026 Summer Nights is coming to the Senior League Softball World Series for the second year in a row. The Bethany-Fenwick Area Chamber of Commerce will hold their Summer Nights events between August 3 and August 7, at Lower Sussex Little League Park.
The Summer Nights activities will take place on the practice field near the main concession hub, according to the Bethany-Fenwick Area Chamber of Commerce, and feature backyard style games and poster making amongst other activities.
While having fun off the field, there will be plenty of action to take in on the field. Ten regional championship teams — including Delaware’s Sussex All-Stars — from around the world will play throughout the week culminating in a championship game on August 9.
This is the 21st year the tournament has been held at Lower Sussex Little League Park, according to Sports Illustrated. The complex has been one of six host sites for the tournament over the last 20 years, according to the Bethany-Fenwick Area Chamber of Commerce. All games will be streamed on ESPN+.
