Welcome to the 9th Annual Weekend in Norfolk! Our ninth annual town-wide summer festival celebrates all the wonderful things there are here to see and do. We have started posting events for August 2, 3 & 4, but they're not all here…be sure and come back often so you don't miss anything. You'll find both old favorites and surprises, including fun for kids, concerts at the Music Shed and Infinity Hall, and work by artists and artisans all over town. We look forward to seeing you in August.
