This is one of those weekends you plan your summer around 👇

Sails on the Potomac (June 12–14) is Alexandria's signature event commemorating America's 250th, welcoming iconic tall ships to our historic Potomac River waterfront for a once-in-a-generation celebration. This year, the 48th Annual Alexandria Jazz Fest expands as part of the festival, bringing a full weekend of performances that highlight the city's and U.S. musical heritage.

It's free, family-friendly and is a can’t-miss celebration! 🎉
