The Soundside Event Site

The Soundside event site belongs to the Town of Nags Head and the Dare County Tourism Board, with management provided by the Outer Banks Visitors Bureau.

Located along the Roanoke Sound in Nags Head, The Soundside event site is open for rental for festivals, fairs, and events of any kind. Its location provides convenient access from Hatteras Island, Roanoke Island, and the northern Outer Banks. With approximately 10 acres of green space, it ranks among the largest event sites on the Outer Banks.

Walking Trail Map

Up to 750 total guests can be accommodated, with parking available on-site. Events exceeding that number may be possible when additional off-site parking is included in the plan. Rentals are offered “rent as is” and include the parking areas, lawns, and lighted pathways.

With permission from the Town of Nags Head and the required permits, clients may bring in temporary structures, vendors, concessions, and alcohol for their events. Reservations may be made up to a year ahead, and daily rentals are available through 11:00 pm.
