2020 Suffolk peanut fest Cancelled

 It is with great disappointment and careful consideration that the Suffolk Festivals, Inc., Board of Directors announce the cancellation of the 2020 Suffolk Peanut Fest, slated for October 8-11. After much discussion, the Board and staff ultimately decided that cancelling the festival is in the best interest of our community, given the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

As a longstanding tradition in Suffolk and the Coastal Virginia region, Suffolk Peanut Fest values the health and safety of all event participants, including attendees, sponsors, volunteers, vendors, merchants, entertainers, staff and all those who work diligently to make this four-day event an annual success.

While the current circumstances are not ideal, the Executive Committee is currently planning the 2021 Suffolk Peanut Fest for October 7-10, at the Suffolk Executive Airport. Theresa Earles and Richard Bradshaw will serve as 2021 Festival Chairman and First Vice Chairman, respectively. Suffolk Festivals, Inc. looks forward to welcoming everyone back to the 2021 Suffolk Peanut Fest. Keep up to date on all festival details at SuffolkPeanutFest.com. 

Suffolk Festivals, Inc. may be reached by calling 757.539.6751. Staffing is limited for the remainder of 2020.
​Please send requests, whenever possible, through SuffolkPeanutFest.com. Additional information available via facebook.com/SuffolkPeanutFest  and instagram.com/suffolkpeanutfestival.
