“Sandstock” – a Beach-inspired variation on “Woodstock” – is a tribute to the music of the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s that “rocked our world!”  National and local tribute artists who run the gamut and cover performers like Led Zeppelin to Queen to Journey crank out hit after hit on multiple stages at the Virginia Beach oceanfront.  Even “The King” himself gets in on the act with special tribute shows at 31st Street Park on Sunday night! FREE EVENT!!!!!

Host Hotel:

To set the stage, parks are decorated…thrill to the “Flower Power” hippies of the 60’s, the “Disco Divas” of the 70’s, and the “big hair” rockers of the 80’s!  To electrify the night, a laser light show explodes on a giant screen on the beach to the music of bands like Pink Floyd! 

To add a touch of whimsy and period authenticity, psychedelic “hippie” vans provided by local and regional VW clubs, are on display.  Games and activities for all ages round out this “blast from the past!”
