The Town of Vienna has a lot to offer throughout the summer in terms of entertainment and events. I want to highlight some if you’re looking for something new to do:

Big Screen on the Green

Each month, the town hosts an outdoor movie screening at 8:30 p.m. There’s free water and popcorn while supplies last. The movie is set up on the town green. Bring your own chairs, blanket, picnic etc.

Chillin’ on Church

Vienna’s version of a block party, held on Church Street and includes food, beer, wine and family friendly activities, which starts at 6:30 p.m.

  • June 17: Big Bad JuJu
  • July 15: Ocho De Bastos
  • Aug 19: Deja Gruv Band
  • Sept 16: Texas Chainsaw Horns

Kids on the Green

Free, interactive kids programs that last about 30-45 minutes on the patio behind the Freeman store. The programs are held on Tuesdays at 10 a.m.

Summer on the Green Concert Series

Free summer concerts on select Fridays. Concerts begin at 6:30 p.m. and are about 90 minutes long. Bring your own chairs, blankets, etc.

Special Shows:

4th of July Celebrations

Don’t forget: The Town of Vienna has it’s own fireworks show! Held at Yeonas Park (where the little league fields are) on Friday, July 1 at 8 p.m. The event will have live music, games, food and drinks, and the fireworks start at dark. The United States Navy Concert Band will play before the 20 minute fireworks show. Bring blanks and lawn chairs, but remember chairs are not permitted on the baseball fields (there are bleachers and a paved path for chairs).

*Note: this event is loud if you have a sensory sensitive child.

VHC Health hosted its annual Trauma Survivors Day, honoring four former trauma patients and their care team on Tuesday, May 16. For many of these patient honorees, this event was the first time they were reunited with the team of healthcare professionals who cared for them after their injury. Both the healthcare team and the honorees expressed gratitude for the opportunity to thank, hug, and simply see one another again after their experience in the Trauma Center.

 

In May of 2021, the Commonwealth of Virginia designated VHC Health as a Level II Trauma Center. This designation filled a critical community need; previously, the closest trauma center for Arlington County was in Fairfax or Washington, DC. Since becoming a Level II Trauma Center, VHC Health has provided care for nearly 2,000 trauma patients each year.
