We’re a community of runners, hikers, bikers and ballplayers. We’re an outdoor playground, designed by Mother Nature, with class III and IV rapids running right through our downtown. A 52-mile bike trail runs along the James. The Richmond Marathon and Ukrop’s 10k are huge celebrations, and the whole region comes out to cheer on our local teams. In fact, we’re so sports-minded that the Washington Redskins have their training camp right in the center of the city. Add to that awesome hotels, beautiful venues, attractions, art, craft beer, more than 900 restaurants and a convenient location, and you’ve got a top choice for your next sports event. Welcome to RVA!

From indoor to outdoor facilities, the Richmond region has the fields, pitches, diamonds, venues and the dedicated staff to ensure your event is a huge success.

Witness Patrick Henry Convince his Fellow Delegates to Take Up Arms Against the King!

St. John’s Church Foundation presents a gender-reversed production of our time-honored Liberty or Death reenactment. In this historic rendition, women drawn from Richmond’s vibrant theatre and film community portray nine delegates to the Second Virginia Convention, including George Washington, Thomas Jefferson, Richard Henry Lee and of course, Patrick Henry.

Directed by Dr. Jan Powell, the former Artistic Director of Richmond Shakespeare, this special production was inspired by and commemorates the passing of the 19th Amendment in August 1920, which gave women the right to vote and at-long-last participate in our representational democracy.

Casting female actors in traditionally male roles is a unique and deliberate way to shift our modern perspective, allowing us to better hear the profundity of Henry’s arguments, and more fully comprehend America’s relentless pursuit for liberty.
