Welcome to the only national park dedicated to presenting the performing arts.

No matter what your age or taste in shows, you’ll find something you like onstage at Wolf Trap. Multiple amphitheaters in the park present performances from May - September such as musicals, dance, opera, jazz, popular music, and country.

A good time to explore the beauty and history of the park without the crowds is October - April.
