The Boardwalk Art Show is one of the oldest and best outdoor fine art shows on the Eastern seaboard,and this year will mark our 58th year. The show is consistently ranked in Sunshine Artist Magazine’s Top 50 fine art shows. With an average attendance each year of more than 200,000, this four-day festival is one of the most popular in Virginia, attracting collectors and artists from across the nation. The show runs along the Virginia Beach boardwalk from 19th Street to 33rd Street, overlooking the sandy beach and Atlantic Ocean.
Come join us for a fun time with family and friends enjoying fine art, great food and live entertainment.This year's plans are underway for late hours on Thursday, June 13th featuring The Rhondels on the 24th Street Stage. Also, celebrate Father's Day in style at our Old Virginia Beach Tea Dance with big band music, hors d'oeuvres, and drinks including tea, of course. The jewel of the show is the Boardwalk Beach Club, a 60' tented space along the boardwalk for individuals who want to celebrate a special day. Beach Club guests enjoy valet parking, open bar, unparalled lunch service by Steinhilber's, lovely shaded seating, private bathrooms and beautiful views of the ocean. We'll see you on the boardwalk!
