FAIRY INVASION (RVA First Fridays - July 3)
About this Event
FIRST FRIDAY in July, we invite you to SPREAD YOUR WINGS and help transform the Arts District in Richmond into something a little more magical!
Wear fairy wings during RVA FIRST FRIDAYS on July 3rd, 2026 and claim your FREE collectible Fairy Pin as a thank-you for bringing a touch of enchantment to downtown RVA – just stop by the DRINKERS & DRAGONS Fantasy Bar Crawl table (outside Black Iris from 6:00-9:00pm) to claim your collectible pin.
No purchase is necessary — just wings and a little fae spirit! (Limited quantity available, first-come, first get – 6:00-9:00pm)
FIRST FRIDAY also marks the Opening Reception for the DRAGONS & MEAD Fantasy Community Art Show, featuring original fantasy-inspired artwork from 25 Richmond artists to be on display throughout the month of July at @black.iris.social.club
At the same time, adventurers can join the DRINKERS & DRAGONS Fantasy Bar Crawl (in the Arts District with magical stops at Black Iris hosting Registration, GWAR BAR, Bar Solita, Tarrant's Downtown and Cobra Cobana), creating an evening filled with fantasy, creativity, costumes, and community. Come make new friends while seeking trading cards featuring artwork from over 80 Richmond artists and completing Quests!
This upcoming FIRST FRIDAY also serves as the opening chapter of DRAGON FIRE TAVERN, a month-long series of fantasy-inspired events presented by After Dark RVA and Destination D&D, all hosted at Black Iris! (21+)
Whether you're a woodland fairy, mischievous pixie, elegant elf, or simply someone who believes Richmond could use a little more magic, we'd love to see you join the FAIRY INVASION on July 3rd!
