Lake Anna Taphouse Waterfront Live Music Sessions
Program Details & Spotlights
Perched on the waterfront with views of the Route 208 bridge, Lake Anna Taphouse showcases top regional acoustic duos and indie rock performers every weekend. Over thirty rotating Virginia craft taps, regional hard seltzers, and local wines pair with flatbread pizzas and soft pretzels. Guests can lounge in Adirondack chairs along the grassy lawn, gather around fire pits, or play cornhole while listening to live guitar.
Get ready to experience the very heart and soul of Lake Anna evenings at the Lakeside Sunset Concerts, a true gem on our local calendar. Picture this: the vibrant energy of live acoustic music drifting over the water, the aroma of delicious pub fare in the air, and the most breathtaking sunset you’ve ever witnessed painting the sky in fiery hues – all from the comfort of an Adirondack chair right on the lakefront. The Lake Anna Taphouse isn't just a venue; it's a destination where memories are made, offering that quintessential LKA charm we all love.
From 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM, the outdoor lawn and waterfront stage come alive with a curated selection of acoustic rock, roots, and country acts that perfectly complement the relaxed lake vibe. Our local talent and regional favorites provide the soundtrack to your perfect evening. And what’s a great concert without great refreshments? The Taphouse boasts an impressive lineup of over 30 regional Virginia craft beers, a thoughtful selection of artisanal wines, and refreshing craft ciders. Pair your drink with their mouth-watering casual pub menu, featuring everything from crispy flatbread pizzas and loaded sandwiches to warm, soft pretzels – ideal for sharing (or not!).
This event is a true Lake Anna gathering spot, welcoming everyone from families enjoying a night out to boaters pulling right up to the dock. It’s a chance to unwind, connect with friends and neighbors, and simply soak in the unparalleled beauty of our lake as day transitions to night. The unobstructed views of the sun sinking below the tree line are truly spectacular, making every concert an experience for all the senses.
