2024 marks the 50th anniversary for the Virginia Beach Neptune Festival! Every year, hundreds of thousands of people celebrate at the festival's many offerings — including concerts, artwork, sand sculptures, an 8k Race, a Grand Parade, an Atlantic regatta, activities for kids and more!

Recognized in the Top 25 out of 200 Fine Art & Design Shows in the country for the past 10 years by Sunshine Artist Magazine, the Neptune Festival Art and Craft Show features more than 225 artists.

There is beauty in youth some say, especially when they are as talented as those chosen to participate in Neptune's Youth Art Show. On display will be the finest youth art Hampton Roads has to offer. Come enjoy this perspective as you peruse their gallery on 27th-28th Streets.
