Godspeed Landing Party Festival

America’s 400th Anniversary sails up the Eastern Seaboard with port visits by the tall ship Godspeed, a replica of one of the ships that brought America’s first permanent English settlers to Jamestown, Virginia in 1607.  A Landing Party Festival features live music, family entertainment, and interactive exhibits that give a glimpse into early 17th century life and America’s legacies of democracy, cultural diversity, free enterprise and exploration as they continue today.  Open free from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. weekdays, 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. weekends.
