Our neighbor, the Village at Shirlington, will be hopping the month of October with great events. First, on Oct. 8, celebrate all things hops with the Capitol City Brewing Company's Ocktoberfest. The streets will be closed, polka bands will play, and hundreds--if not thousands--of revelers will sample beer and food from dozens of vendors from noon to 7:00 p.m.   

 

Then Oct. 10-16 is the First Annual Shirlington Restaurant Week, with $15 two-course lunches and $25 three-course dinners from many of the Shirlington restaurants. Find out more about both events here.
