Live music, location in park, nice it is one area and not too spread out. Easily see what is offered, harder to decide what to spend your tokens on.

Food, Wine, and Beer from all over the Commonwealth

The recipes are inspired by the various regions of Virginia. From shrimp and grits at the Tidewater to biscuits with local apple butter in the Piedmont, you won't be disappointed by the flavors.

Virginia is home to many world-class craft brews and wines. We are 5th in the nation for number of wineries and some say Va might be the east coast Napa. So what better way to try what Va has to offer in the world of wine.

My husband enjoyed a nice glass of Belgian Abbey-style Blonde Ale from Hardywood.

There are all new rides in Planet Snoopy and all the awesome roller coasters are open to ride throughout the park. Plus since it is May, the weather is nice and the crowds aren't bad. We were able to ride every ride!

    You had me at beer and wine, but I guess I’ll have to go next year since I’m currently 8 months sober with one month to go. ๐Ÿ™‚ I had no idea Virginia had so many wineries. Hopefully they don’t start trying to keep up with Napa prices!

    The East Coast Napa? That’s a good title to hold. I like to visit VA for so many reasons. ๐Ÿ™‚
