The 2026 Festival Programs
The Rappahannock Tribe
We are honored to celebrate this year’s festival with a powerful and meaningful cultural experience. The Rappahannock Tribe will grace the festival with a special performance by their Drum and Dance Team, sharing traditions that have been passed down through generations along the waterways of Virginia.
Through rhythm, movement, and song, this performance honors the deep connection between the Rappahannock people, the land, and the river—echoing the spirit of the osprey, a symbol of renewal, resilience, and balance in nature. We invite you to experience this moment of culture, history, and living tradition as we open the 2026 Virginia Osprey Festival together.
