Taste of Virginia
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.
Not only does Taste of Virginia include beer, wine, and tasty plates, but you can also try some of the best homegrown spirits from local distilleries.
Belmont Distillery – May 13th
Belle Isle Craft Spirits – May 14th
Copper Fox Distillery – May 20th-21st
Taste of Virginia is happening Saturday and Sundays from now until May 21st.
It wouldn’t be a day at Kings Dominion without enjoying all the fun they have to offer.
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!
Don’t forget all the amazing happenings at Kings Dominion this Summer. The Run and Ride, KidsFest, KingsFest, Star Spangled Celebration, and more! You DO NOT want to miss out! Buy your tickets today!

I have always wanted to go to Virginia but I had no idea what to do there.
This place looks like it would be a ton of fun!
My kids are huge fans of roller coasters too… we might not be able to get them off!!
Ooh, the food and drink there look delicious! You’ve made me very hungry! Hehe

I have been wanting to plan a roadtrip here with the kids. It sounds like such a fun park!
I love the look of the rides. I think I love them more than my little ones at times! We are all big kids at heart I think!
It looks like everyone had an amazing time! The drinks look amazing! I would’ve loved to attend!
I friggin’ love TASTE OF festivals because I am such a food lover! Seriously, aside from my husband… Food is the only thing on my brain!
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. 🙂 I had no idea Virginia had so many wineries. Hopefully they don’t start trying to keep up with Napa prices!
It looks like you had an amazing trip to the Kings Dominion. I’ve never been before. I am interested in those desserts 😉
This would be a lot of fun! My daughter would love it here. I wish we had one nearby.
This looks like so much fun! I can’t wait for my baby to grow a little more so I can take her with me at such events!
I would love to be able to go to the Kings Dominion Taste of Virginia event. The food looks amazing. looks like everyone had a blast.
Oh how fun! We love Kings Dominion, we spent so much of last summer there. I’ve never been to this event but anything that involves tasting lots of yummy food sounds fabulous to me. Glad you had a wonderful time.
This looks amazing! We have a similar event here in Brisbane, which is always a treat to go to. I always come home with a ton of food!
What a super event to attend! This sounds like my idea of a great day out! 🙂
You certainly had the weather for it. What a great event.

I didn’t know that Kings Dominon hosted and event like this. Foodies all over will definitely have a great time here especially if they love wine and beer.
I haven’t been there for some time now. I think it’s really awesome to be a part of this event! It’s a great way to enjoy good food and drink a few beers.
It sounds like a cool event where there’s good food and good wine! I would love to go here and experience all the fun personally. Thanks for the heads-up!
King’s Dominion looks like an awesome place! Good food and good times are always a great trip. Thank you for this!
The East Coast Napa? That’s a good title to hold. I like to visit VA for so many reasons. 🙂
Ooooo now this looks like my kind of event!! Any place that requires eating and drinking is always a great time
