Pawpaw Festival at Powhatan State Park

Celebrate one of Virginia’s favorite native fruits at the Pawpaw Festival at Powhatan State Park!

The festival will showcase local vendors offering delicious food, refreshing brews, unique crafts and adorable critters. Attendees can enjoy acoustic music performances, ranger-led programs and animal encounters throughout the day. Special event parking/admission will be $20 per vehicle, while annual pass holders will only need to pay $10 per vehicle.

You can also volunteer to help at the festival! Volunteers are at the heart of this festival, helping bring the event to life through setup, guest assistance, traffic and parking support, and educational programming that connect visitors with the area’s natural and cultural heritage.
