Celebration of the Arts 2026 at the Capital One Center in Tysons

Presented with Tephra Institute of Contemporary Art (Tephra ICA) and Capital One Arts, this curated experience transforms Capital One Center into an open-air celebration of visual art, music, food, and community.

The festival invites the public to engage with hands-on workshops, immersive art activations, live performances, a local artisan market and culinary offerings from the region’s most exciting creators. Capital One Center is committed to celebrating the diversity of art in all forms and whether it’s artmaking with regional artists, a live “Battle of the Artists” competition, the pop-up “Art Bark” for dogs & their humans, kid-friendly activations, or live music, there’s something for every age and interest.

Capital One Center’s Celebration of the Arts is open to the public and free to attend. Guests are encouraged to register in advance and make a donation at the event.
