Alexandria Red Cross Waterfront Festival

Join us for an "Undersea Adventure" at the 23rd Annual Alexandria Red Cross Waterfront Festival, June 18-20 at Oronoco Bay Park in Old Town Alexandria. Northern Virginia's premier waterfront festival is a great way to jump start your summer. Show dad how much you appreciate him by celebrating Father's Day at the festival. Visit the tall ships, sample the frozen fruit drinks and crab cakes, shop at over 60 Arts & Crafts booths, take a spin on the ferris wheel, send the kids on a sea hunt adventure, and relax on the lawn while enjoying the waterfront view and music from the main stage. You won't want to miss the spectacular fireworks show over the bay on Saturday night!
