Suffolk, Virginia Peanut Fest

Suffolk Peanut Fest Returns for Fall 2021

Suffolk Festivals, Inc. is pleased to announce the return of Suffolk Peanut Fest, offering a three-day family festival,
Friday, October 8, through Sunday, October 10, 2021. As with most large public events, the 2020 Suffolk Peanut Fest was cancelled due to the global Covid-19 pandemic. With the current easing of restrictions by Virginia Governor Northam, Suffolk Festival’s volunteer event planners are racing to produce a quality event for the Hampton Roads community.

“We are excited to bring back Suffolk Peanut Fest, especially after a year of restricted gatherings and events. While 2021 looks a little different, it is our goal to incorporate our festival traditions while adding new fun elements,” according to Lisa Key, Suffolk Festivals’ Executive Director. “We have a short time to pull a large event together and we are ready for the challenge.” Festival details will continue to emerge as plans develop.

The 43rd Annual Suffolk Peanut Fest is scheduled for October 8-10, 2021. General admission is $10 per person; Children 10 & under are free. Parking is free.
