Pungo Boys BBQ
Pungo Boys BBQ is a bbq restaurant in Pungo & Blackwater, Virginia Beach, located at 1776 Princess Anne Rd. Family-run Pungo smokehouse where the meats smoke sixteen hours — try the Alabama white sauce smoked turkey or the Brunswick stew.
A family-owned and operated smokehouse at the Pungo crossroads, ten miles from the Oceanfront, where the brisket, pulled pork, chicken, and ribs go low and slow for sixteen hours. The menu strays rewardingly from the standards: smoked turkey sandwich with Alabama white sauce, a golden Cuban, Pork Mac, Brunswick stew, and hush puppies. A food truck extends the reach when the farm-country dining room is full. Open Wednesday through Sunday until 6pm.

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.
