Cruise days mean energy on the waterfront — and we’re celebrating with Cruise Norfolk Market Days, a lively pop-up market in downtown Norfolk just steps from the cruise terminal on our Port of Call Days, when visitors are here exploring our region.
Join us from 2PM – 6PM (special time!) as local vendors, musicians, and more at the waterfront for a fun, family-friendly midday event. Whether you work downtown, live nearby, or are just looking for something different to do, this is the perfect excuse to step outside and enjoy the atmosphere.
✨ Shop local artisans & makers
🎵 Enjoy live music
🍴 Grab lunch from local food vendors
👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Bring the whole family
Free to attend and open to everyone — come enjoy the waterfront, support small businesses, and soak in the cruise-day buzz.
See you downtown! 🚢✨
