The celebration has been rescheduled to Sunday, June 28.
Join us for live music, food trucks, family activities and Fairfax County's first-ever drone light show celebrating America's 250th anniversary.
Celebrate America’s 250th anniversary at Lake Fairfax Park with a first-of-its-kind drone light show — an innovative, environmentally friendly alternative to fireworks. Hundreds of synchronized lights will illuminate the night sky with bold imagery honoring Fairfax County and American independence.
There will be an in person meeting of the Park Authority Board on Wednesday, July 8, 2026.
Another win for Fairfax County Park Authority!
We’ve been recognized by the U.S. Department of Energy with a Better Project Award for our innovative energy savings performance contract (ESPC) at Franconia Recreation Center. This major upgrade modernized HVAC, boilers, pool systems, advanced controls and the building envelope into one high‑performing, efficient system.
The results are impressive: more than 360,000 kWh in guaranteed annual energy savings and about 20% annual cost savings, all while improving comfort, air quality and reliability for our visitors. Thank you to #TeamFCPA and our partners for helping us earn this award. We’re proud to be leading the way in energy efficiency and sustainability in Fairfax County!
