Father’s Day falls on Sunday, June 21st, and Northern Virginia has plenty of ways to celebrate every dad, uncle, grandfather, brother, or father figure. From plane-spotting and antique cars to live music, fishing, BBQs, and an afternoon at a beer garden, there are lots of ways to make memories with Dad. Read on for Father’s Day events happening around Northern Virginia.
