Experience the high-energy thrill of the world's largest beach sports festival at the North American Sand Soccer Championships (NASSC) in Virginia Beach. Taking place from June 5 to 7, 2026, the 32nd edition of this massive event transforms over 30 blocks of the oceanfront into an action-packed playground for more than 11,000 players.
While sand soccer is the main event—featuring both amateur divisions and the elite U.S. Open with top global talent—the festival also hosts beach volleyball, kickball, field hockey, and flag football. Spectators can enjoy a free kids' clinic, shop from over 70 vendors, and soak up the lively atmosphere filled with upbeat music and oceanfront entertainment. As a non-profit event supporting the Hampton Roads Soccer Complex, it combines world-class athletics with a deep commitment to the local community.
