Celebrate Memorial Day Weekend at the 2026 Patriotic Festival, a premier country music event held in Norfolk, Virginia, to honor our military and their families. Taking place from May 22 to 24, 2026, at the Norfolk Scope Arena, this high-energy "Country Weekend" features a stellar lineup of national headliners, including Zach Top on Friday, the legendary Brooks & Dunn on Saturday, and The Red Clay Strays on Sunday.
Beyond the main concerts, the festival offers a variety of pre-show activities and "Parties on the Plaza" that bring the community together in a spirited tribute to the armed forces. As one of the most anticipated music events in the Mid-Atlantic, the Patriotic Festival blends world-class entertainment with a profound sense of gratitude and patriotism.
