As summer begins to round itself out—with the constant back-to-school reminders, fall fashions, Halloween and even Christmas décor that are quickly creeping into a store near you—Labor Day weekend cries as the all time final hurrah to the fun and carefree days of summer. No need to pack your bags boys and girls because there is no place that bids adieu to the season like Norfolk and Virginia Beach!

Verizon Wireless American Music Festival

Known as the largest outdoor musical event in the east coast, it brings to a 60 foot stage, all types of music from R&B, rock, country, and many others. Local and regional acts light up the oceanfront all weekend-long and the best part is it’s all free!

Slushy Sundays

Enjoy great musical entertainment, food and your favorite adult drinks slushy-fied at Norfolk’s only downtown waterside hotel. The pool will be filled with all sorts of fun, so jump into the Slushy Sunday season finale. Free and open to the public, with complimentary valet parking (with the purchase of food or drink).
