Looking for a local cause that doubles down on Richmond culture and good times? Look no further than Maymont, our city’s beloved historic and natural gem. Nestled along the curving banks of the James River just beside the Nickel Bridge, Maymont is especially awe-inspiring during springtime. Explore the exquisite Italian and Japanese gardens of the sprawling estate, take a step back in time on a tour of the Victorian mansion, or visit the animal habitats for an introduction to adorable farm animals and wildlife (especially popular for kids!).
On Friday, May 3rd, Maymont hosts its annual Beer and Wine Classic. Join your friends on the Carriage House Lawn for live music, food trucks, and a sampling of Virginia’s finest beverages. The event features dozens of local breweries, wineries, and cideries. Ages 21 and up; tickets are available here for $40.
