Second Annual Delco Downhill Derby
N. Edgmont Street · Media, PA
The Second Annual Delco Downhill Derby (aka 'The Triple D') is a free community kinetic sculpture race on N. Edgmont Street in Media, where homemade human-powered creations roll downhill to celebrate Delaware County's birthday and the Delaware County Historical Society's anniversary.
Expect a lively, small-town street scene as quirky community-built sculptures careen down the hill on N. Edgmont Street, with crowds lining the route to cheer on the creative contraptions. Hosted by the Delaware County Historical Society, the five-hour event doubles as a birthday celebration for Delco itself, giving it a festive, hometown-pride atmosphere. Spectators can watch for free, while teams pay a $25 fee to register and race their sculptures.
