Open All Year
Overview. Located southwest of Washington, D.C. in Virginia, this park is dedicated to the performing arts. Set in 130 acres of rolling northern Virginia countryside, the park includes three venues: the Filene Center, Theater-in-the-Woods, and the Meadow Pavilion.
What to see and do. Stretching 70 feet across and 65 feet deep, the Filene Center is the park's largest stage. A roof shelters 3,786 persons, while another 3,000 can find lawn seats. Rebuilt after a devastating 1982 fire, the Filene Center is wheelchair accessible. Call ahead for schedule and ticket information for the many important groups, such as the National Symphony, which perform here. Kids are especially welcome at Theater-in-the-Woods, an 800-seat outdoor rustic stage. From early July through August, children's programs are available Tuesday through Saturday; tickets are required for the events. At the Meadow Pavilion, several special events are held throughout the year. Backstage tours are available October through March.
You can take a tour of the grounds during summertime, and picnicking is welcomed.
