The Earth Day Festival is an annual community celebration held on Chincoteague Island, Virginia, bringing together local artists, makers, musicians, environmental organizations, and small businesses to celebrate our planet and inspire sustainable living.

Held each April in honor of Earth Day, the festival features live music, local vendors, sustainability workshops, art, family-friendly activities, and educational programming focused on environmental awareness, creativity, and community connection.
