We are pleased to offer Virginia Beach, Virginia, as a site for the Feast of Tabernacles in 2011. It was awarded the 2011 top ten “Traveler’s Choice Family Award-winning Great U.S. Destinations to Discover” by www.tripadvisor.com.

Good housing, good prices, great restaurants, historical sites, abundant shopping and many different recreational opportunities throughout the area will ensure an enjoyable stay. Church services will be held in the Sandler Center for the Performing Arts, which is among the nation’s most acoustically awesome venues for the arts. It is perhaps the highest-quality facility the United Church of God has used for Feast services.
