Blue Pete's Restaurant
Blue Pete's Restaurant is a seafood restaurant in Pungo & Blackwater, Virginia Beach, located at 1400 N Muddy Creek Rd, Virginia Beach, VA 23456. Pungo-area seafood restaurant known locally as a 'locals' secret,' serving dinner nightly plus a full weekend brunch service.
Blue Pete's sits on N Muddy Creek Road at the rural heart of Pungo, a seafood restaurant regulars have long called Virginia Beach's 'locals' secret.' The kitchen runs dinner service every evening, then adds a full weekend brunch — 10am to 2:30pm Saturday and Sunday — with the kitchen going dark for an hour before flipping over to the dinner menu. The restaurant doesn't take standard reservations, but private event space is available for larger gatherings. It's the kind of out-of-the-way find that rewards the drive from the Oceanfront.

Sandbridge Pig Pickin'
September 12, 2026 · annual
The Sandbridge Volunteer Rescue Squad's all-you-can-eat pig roast at Little Island Park has been the neighborhood's signature fundraiser for more than four decades, paying for the advanced life-saving equipment behind the squad's 1,000-plus annual emergency calls. Barbecue, beer and wine, live music, local art vendors, and a bounce house for kids fill the park for an afternoon, with free admission for children under 10. It's Sandbridge at its most neighborly -- a beach-community fundraiser rather than a tourist draw, held at the same park that anchors the south end of the beach.
Autumn in the Air
November 7, 2026 · annual
A newer addition to the city's Parks & Recreation calendar, this single-day fall festival takes over Mount Trashmore Park with folk, americana, and rock bands on an outdoor stage, food and drink for purchase, and activities scattered across the lakefront lawn. Now in its third year, it's grown into the city's answer to a proper autumn street festival without the Oceanfront crowds -- bring a lawn chair or blanket, since tents and large coolers aren't allowed in the event area. Free admission and parking make it an easy afternoon add for anyone already in Kempsville.
Mount Trashmore July 4th Celebration
July 4, 2027 · annual
Virginia Beach's inland Independence Day tradition fills Mount Trashmore Park -- the converted landfill hill that gives the park its name -- with live music, food trucks, and family activities before a fireworks show over the lake at 9:30pm. It's the free, low-key alternative to the Oceanfront's Stars & Stripes Celebration the same night, drawing families from the Kempsville and Town Center side of the city who'd rather skip beach traffic. Free admission and free parking, with the park's grassy hill doubling as a natural amphitheater for the fireworks.
