How else can one describe this event any other way than with an experience? With a world-class venue, 32 of the world's most talented sculptors, and an exciting prize purse, Neptune's International Sandsculpting Championship has distinguished itself as a premier event unlike any other.
The Championship has been the signature event of the Virginia Beach Neptune Festival since its inception, and has grown to the most prestigious event of its kind in the nation. With an international field of sculptors representing 15 countries from around the world, watch the professionals turn grains of sand into works of art in just 3 days!
The Land of Sand is a huge tent, almost as large as a football field, will house 22 sculptures created by 12 solo and 10 doubles teams! Sculptors will compete for the largest prize purse awarded in the country.
SAND CLINICS
Master Sculptors will hold FREE teaching clinics on the beach for your chance to learn from a pro! Join classes with your friends, classmates, or coworkers for a once in a lifetime, hands-on learning experience.
All sand, water and tools will be provided. No reservations are available, and please arrive before class times to participate — space will be limited! Find us at 6th Street on the beach.
