Heading into the long weekend like… 😎☀️🙌

Labor Day Weekend is here, and there’s plenty to do right here in Fredericksburg!

Spend the weekend exploring downtown, shopping local, grabbing a bite at your favorite restaurant, checking out First Friday, taking one last ride on the Around the Town Trolley for the summer, enjoying some history or getting outside along the Rappahannock.

However you spend the long weekend, make a little time for local. ❤️

We have rounded up some ideas to get you started:
