Yorktown Market Days – Maritime Festival
November 10 @ 9:00 am – 3:00 pm
During this extended Yorktown Farmers Market, visitors will enjoy two days of Maritime Festival with some of the best local and seasonal seafood including clam chowder, Virginia blue crabs, oysters, and other seafood favorites. Guests can also shop for nautical-inspired art and jewelry.
Pirates invade the waterfront to talk to kids about seafaring life, and educational information will be available for mariners of all ages.
Stop by the Freight Shed to learn more about the upcoming Virginia 250 celebrations, and then cruise on over to the Riverwalk Landing Piers as we commemorate one of those milestones by re-enacting the 1774 Yorktown Tea Party.
