Norfolk Festevents

A huge shoutout to Festevents for the many ways in which they enrich out community. Attending festivals throughout our city is such a gift. My favorite festival is Bayou Bon Vivant, but I will will admit that the wine festivals, and musical features are great. I do wish there were more bike racks throughout the area of Towne Point Park, preferably near where police officers are stationed. I much prefer to ride my bike to the festivals in lieu of Uber or driving.

I had blast at Harborfest.. Lots to see and do and weather was great we went in 2016 and it was a pretty big deal.. lots of great food and ships on water you could see just a really great time

2010 marks the 34th annual Harborfest in Norfolk, VA. Every year the Waterside Drive in downtown Norfolk is shut down for this event. It reminds me of the Taste of Chicago in that there is a long strip of food vendors by the water with music playing on the field and a ton of people walking around. Harborfest has over 50 food and beverage options and serve food such as fresh crab cakes, mouth watering barbecue, hand breaded shrimp, buttery roasted corn, fresh cut french fries, kabobs, funnel cakes, ice cream, smoked, savory turkey legs plus all your other favorite festival foods. They also have wine tastings here for those that love wine.The live music on the lawn was something I really enjoyed. You can lie down or sit down on the lawn and just relax while you are eating your food and enjoying the music. A great family event! There is some parking in the area. I would definitely recommend taking public transit or carpooling. There are a ton of police in the area to monitor the event so I definitely felt safe.At 9:30pm on Saturday they have fireworks for everyone to enjoy!

This was SO FUN! They have a bunch of ship tours, fair style food and one or two food trucks, maybe like 2 or 3 art vendors and then just fun little things to do like, 5 hour energy had a little tent set up where you can play games. There were ping pong tables set up. Its just nice to go with friends, lay on the lawn, listen to the music, drink, maybe take a tour or two of the ships (We didnt do this because my sister cant stand waiting in lines and it is pretty crowded) and eat some junky food. There was a big shaded area that had some side music and drinks were served there. I think it was called "The Boathouse"? We didnt stay for all the festivities. It was my first time so I just wanted to check it out but I will be going again next year to check out the boats! I hear the fireworks are fantastic but we didnt stay for those :(Cant wait to go back next year!!

Standard cart, food truck vendor style food. Always tasty!

Wow, been living in this area for three years and never been until now. There are rows of food vendors, ranged from creo to latin food. Also lots of local breweries showing off there delicious beers. We also got a chance to see a Nathans Hot Dogs eating contest qualifier which was AWESOME! Definitely going back next year, lots of fun, food and good people. Tip show up eary, parking gets full, if you don't mind to walk an extra two minutes park at the mall. Just beware it's about $1 every two hours or so.

Amazing company! Every employee at Festevents has a smile on their face everyday. Full time staff and their seasonal interns answer any questions in a calm and professional manner. Clear, quick, and concise

Festevents is stepping their game up for harborfest with the variety of vendors, activities and food available. Other than the normal stuff the things I enjoyed that stood out to me were:-Cabana areas with seating, hammocks and fans to rest.- Lots of adult beverage stands to make your own drink, grab a beer or wine taste.- Majority of food vendors had sample plates to show what you get when you order, very helpful for indecisive people. I do feel that there were less ships this year which causes long lines that makes the event less enjoyable.

Great music, awesome food and drinks. Loved Harborfest. I loved the different booths you could visit for free swag but also to learn about different things in the area is awesome. The wine booths were great and the oyster shooter shack was amazing. Loved seeing all the tall ships
