Darboy is an unincorporated community in Outagamie County in the Fox Cities area of the U.S. state of Wisconsin.

[2] In the pioneer age of Wisconsin, French fur traders and Native Americans frequently traveled through the area now known as Darboy.

[3] The community was named after Catholic Archbishop Georges Darboy, who was martyred during the Franco-Prussian War.

Farmers in the Darboy area, which traditionally had been a farming community, turned into developers and sold land to families who could hook up their houses to the new sanitary district.

With the completion of State Trunk Highway 441 in 1993, the area gained easier access to the rest of the Fox Cities.

Larger stores and businesses began to move in on the west side of Darboy as well, on the edge of Appleton.

Running along the western border of the Towns of Harrison and Buchanan, the highway provided an easy link from west Appleton, Neenah, Menasha, Kimberly, and Grand Chute, turning the area close to the highway into valuable commercial land.

Chickenfest takes place every summer at the Darboy Community Park in the town of Harrison, behind Sunrise Elementary School.

This festival was introduced in 2003[8] to celebrate the Town of Harrison's sesquicentennial, and is sponsored and operated primarily by the Darboy Kiwanis.
