31st Annual Newport News Children's Festival of Friends!

This year's Children's Festival of Friends will feature your children's favorite characters including the Berenstain Bear kids, Rainbow Fish, Curious George, Paddington Bear, and Spiderman! The Fun Bus will be on site along with friendly animals from Jack's Jungle and Barnyard on Wheels. There will be a live performance on the Arboretum Stage, as well as a live K9 demo from the Newport News Police Department nearby. The festival will feature over 100 hands-on activities and attraction that will include inflatables, make-and-take crafts, trackless train rides and so much more! All that activity can work up an appetite. Luckily for you, there will be food vendors selling favorites including pizza, grilled cheese, shaved ice, funnel cakes, seafood, ice cream and more.
