You'll quickly notice there are a lot of festivals & fairs for you to explore and enjoy this weekend and throughout the week.
Discover Occoquan offers a week long list of fun events. Including a scavenger hunt, sip & stroll and the 14th Annual Duck Splash along the Occoquan River on Sunday!
Spend your Saturday evening exploring all the flavors at Taste of Leesburg. Enjoy bites from local restaurants, food trucks, and farm markets while you sip something special from area breweries & wineries. Walk the streets and jam to the beats of live music.
The Prince William County Fair (the largest county fair in Virginia) is back and kicks off this weekend. And along with fair favs - rides, music, and food there's an open rodeo for amateurs!
Not to be out done, the 67th Clark County Fair starts on Sunday in Berryville! And the Uptown Carnival at One Loudoun is in town until 8.22!
As always I hope your weekly list from ThisIsNorthernVirginia.com helps bring some fun and inspiration to your weekend!
