When you think about the beginning of summer here in Hampton Roads, the Chesapeake Jubilee is one of those traditions you do not want to miss out on. From classic amusement rides to great food, music and fireworks, the Jubilee is one of the best festivals of the year. And this year will be no exception! 
The 2016 Chesapeake Jubilee officially kicks off Thursday, May 19th at Chesapeake City Park. The Jubilee will again host the Chesapeake Kiwanis Club Shrimp Feast and the BBQ Cook-off Competition, sanctioned by the world famous Kansas City Barbeque Society.
The music lineup for the Jubilee this year has a little for everyone! Friday night’s main act is Black White Blues w/ Girls Night Out on the main stage. Saturday evening brings Third World to the main stage at 7:30PM. And, finishing out the weekend on Sunday Lonestar will take the stage at 4:30PM! To see the full music lineup for each day just click here.
As always, you will not want to miss out on the Annual Fireworks Extravaganza produced by the world famous Zambelli Fireworks! The Jubilee firework show is widely acknowledged as of the region’s most spectacular fireworks displays. Fireworks are set to light up the sky on Saturday, May 21st at 9PM (weather permitting).
In addition to great Music and Food, Amusements of America will be on site with thrilling rides and games. We’ll also have numerous displays and exhibits from community and non-profit groups and our armed forces, as well as, the Jubilee Arts & Crafts Tent. The Arts & Crafts Tent will feature unique hand-made crafts from many of the area’s skilled artisans.
Bring out the entire family for a weekend of fun times and great memories. Don’t forget to stop by and see your friends at the Priority Automotive tent. We are a proud long time sponsor of the Chesapeake Jubilee and look forward to celebrating yet another wonderful anniversary for the great City of Chesapeake, Virginia. We hope to see you there!
