Taste, toast, and explore! The Falls Church Festival brings family fun on September 19, 2026 — and this year marks a special milestone: the festival’s 50th anniversary!

In addition to the Taste of Falls Church, featuring delicious tastings from local restaurants and breweries, this family-fun event also includes live entertainment, children’s activities, a beer garden, and booths hosted by local crafters, businesses, and civic organizations.

Little ones will love the inflatables, slides, spinning rides, and pony rides, plus free entertainment on the Kid’s Stage — including magic, a science show, and fan-favorite Rocknoceros! Don’t miss The Big 50 Scavenger Hunt, either — explore the festival and earn 50th anniversary swag.

Admission is free to the public; some activities may require the purchase of one or more tickets. Taste Tickets for food and beer, as well as ride tickets, will be sold on the day of the event (cash/card sales available on-site). This is a rain-or-shine event.

Leashed, well-behaved dogs are welcome, too! Free public parking is available at the Kaiser Permanente Parking Garage and the lower level of the George Mason Square Garage.
