Virginia Beach native Pharrell's highly anticipated Something in the Water Festival is making its return to Virginia Beach in 2025! Organizers sealed the deal with the city late last week, locking in April 26-27 for the two-day festival, spanning from 2nd Street to the pier.
Virginia Beach is putting $500,000 on the table as a sponsorship, funded through admissions taxes. Plus, the city is waiving fees for police, fire crews, and public works to help make the festival a success.
While the mayor had hoped for a multi-year agreement, the contract only covers 2025. But one thing’s for sure—music lovers can start planning for an unforgettable weekend!
