Crowds Pack Boardwalk for Gillian's Anniversary Celebration

  • Things To Do
The Ocean City Boardwalk was jammed on Thursday — on a school night in early June. The crowds came to see fireworks and enjoy discounted rides as part of an 83rd anniversary celebration at Gillian's Wonderland Pier.

David Gillian opened the Fun Deck on the Ocean City Boardwalk at Plymouth Place in 1931. David’s son, Roy, opened the Gillian’s Wonderland Pier in 1965. The Pier is now owned by a third generation, Mayor Jay Gillian.

Wonder Bear's Birthday Bash is an annual event in Ocean City. Wonder Bear is  the park’s mascot

Clouds and rain cleared on Thursday morning to make way for a cool and clear evening for the event.
