  Venue for many free concerts through the summer. View of King Neptune and the beautiful Atlantic Ocean. We have seen shows here for years and truly love it. Fun, sand and salty air.  Color me happy! Be sure to visit 31st St Stage during Labor Day to see a bunch of cool bands - all summer long though, it's rockin'.  If you're staying at the Hilton at 31st, your balcony may face the stage which would be awesome! Enjoy!

  It's free and it's a great time for the family to see some good local musicians and acts. It can be crowded at times, but it's always fun... From the jugglers to the magicians...there is something for everyone.

  Beach Street USA has FREE concerts at every corner.
  
  Among Beach Street USA is the 17th Street Stage. Nice! There are few other Stages and Parks, too.

  You know what?  I had fun.  It can be fun being a tourist in your own backyard, try it.

  Great job by the city to raise the bar on vacations. Another reason to come and spend your summer in va beach.

  Beach Street USA at first sounded like a cheesy idea to this local.  At various streets on the already overcrowed Oceanfront, there is family entertainment provided for free.  But after years of perusing the magicians, musicians, quartets and more, I really like Beach Street USA.  The magicians are entertaining for the kids and tourists and the audience always gets to participate.  My favorite, though, are the musical acts.  Some of the best as yet undiscovered talents play here.  From barbershop quartets transporting us back to the age of 1950s doo-wop, to acoustic hits sung in a soulful voice that spills down the street, to a harp player that almost made me cry--there really is something for everyone.  I once met a musician named Charles who was playing here--he played over twenty different exotic instruments, including a Sitar.  It was amazing!

  I concur. Beachstreet USA is a great idea. Say what you will about the VB strip, but at least they get that live entertainment on the street adds color and culture and fun.
  I think Beach Street technically includes all of the festivals--way too many to list--in addition to the musicians, fireworks and all of that.
  Suffice it to say, there's pretty much always something going on in season, and even some things for the locals once the tourists leave. Yay.

  Beach Street USA is one of the best reasons to head down to the Oceanfront. It's fun for locals and tourists alike. It's a schedule of events, including live music and activities like kite flying or hermit crab racing, and weekend festivals like Latin Fest or Gospel Fest located all along the Oceanfront. The Beach Street USA stages are throughout the boardwalk strip:
  
  7th Street Stage
  13th Street Stage
  17th Street Park
  24th Street Park
  25th Street Park
  31st Street Park (Neptune's Park)
  Little Island Park
  
  Best of all, it's FREE! Check out the website for a full events schedule.
