Weekend travel: Kings Dominion & Meadow Event Park

This part of Virginia is a popular weekend corridor for families and groups visiting Kings Dominion and seasonal events at Meadow Event Park. If you’re traveling on a peak weekend, booking early helps — high-demand dates can sell out quickly.

Easy checklist for event weekends

  • Buy tickets first (or confirm event times), then lock in your hotel dates.
  • Buffer your drive: arrivals around park opening and after major events can be slower.
  • Pack smart: quick snacks and drinks can save time on busy days.
