This free, full-day patriotic festival will celebrate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence through the theme “Liberty, Legacy, and Liftoff in the Land of Beginnings.” This milestone celebration will honor the history, innovation, and spirit of our county and the Outer Banks through a day of music, food, drink, vendors, performances, and patriotic community spirit.
The event will bring together local organizations, artists, and volunteers to commemorate 250 years of culture and history in Dare County.
The Dare A250 Faire is sponsored in part by The Outer Banks Visitors Bureau.
This event is also made possible in part through a grant from the Outer Banks Community Foundation.
