As we all know, summer activities can be expensive. Between vacations and camps, it’s easy to blow the summer budget before the summer break is even halfway over. But fortunately, there are plenty of activities in Richmond that are free – or very close to it. From parks to pools, there are countless ways to cool down, burn off excess energy and, most importantly, spend time as a family.
Take advantage of the many free summer activities and events in Richmond this summer with our Guide to Free Summer Activities in Richmond. The guide provides free activities for every age and interest. Check out the following categories to find the sites, activities and events that are right for your family.
And of course, if you know of any free things to do in Richmond this summer – or throughout the year – we would love to hear about them! Let us know in the comments below or send us an email at [email protected]
