Upcoming Events for Teens in Hampton Roads

July 17, 2026

Teens Celebrating - Upcoming Events and Activities for Teens in Hampton Roads VA

Does anyone else have teens in the house? While many kids in middle and high school have their established groups of friends and activities, many are either looking for fun activities to do with their friend group, or to connect with other teens and make new friends. Hampton Roads has so many military kids (including our own) who may move into the neighborhood and not know where to start to make those initial social connections.

These upcoming activities are open to and/or designed for teens in Hampton Roads – including Chesapeake, Hampton, Newport News, Norfolk, Portsmouth, Suffolk, Virginia Beach and beyond. You can submit additions to our calendar (including this list) anytime on this link.
