River View

Historic Yorktown Riverwalk Landing from water

Enjoy a mile-long pedestrian walk along the York River from the Yorktown Battlefield to the American Revolution Museum of Yorktown

Up the hill in the village are even more shops, galleries, museums, and fine dining. Special events year round feature musical performances, artists, fresh local food, living history, and fireworks.

Plan your visit to coincide with festivities that include Market Days, with plenty of local food and more for sale; Sounds of Summer, with a variety of music genres to get you dancing; and Rhythms on the Riverwalk, with jazz and swing. Come back for July 4th and Yorktown Day (October 19) for patriotic concerts, performances by the Fifes and Drums of York Town, plenty of food, and other entertainment. Holiday events include a lighted boat parade and visit from Santa.
