Rosslyn Jazz Fest is returning this weekend at Gateway Park.

A full lineup for the free outdoor music festival, which will take place from 1-7 p.m. on Saturday at 1300 Langston Blvd, is below.

The following road closures, meanwhile, are scheduled from 7 a.m.-10 p.m.

  • Eastbound Langston Blvd from N. Nash Street to N. Moore Street
  • Fort Myer Drive between westbound Langston Blvd and N. 19th Street
  • Fort Myer Drive access road from 19th Street N. to N. Moore Street

Street parking in the area of Gateway Park will be restricted, and drivers should be on the lookout for temporary “no parking signs,” according to Arlington County police.

“Traffic is expected to be impacted in the area and motorists should seek alternate routes to reduce road congestion,” ACPD said. “Attendees are encouraged to use Metro and other forms of multimodal transportation.”

Due to space constraints at Rosslyn Jazz Fest, attendees are encouraged to register in advance.
