Alexandria Summer Sidewalk Sale Returns August 15 and 16
Stroll Outdoors for Deals from 60+ Boutiques, Free Street Parking
Alexandria, VA — One of the longest running seasonal summer shopping events returns to the D.C. region’s Shop Small destination for independent boutiques, Alexandria, Virginia, with the annual Alexandria Summer Sidewalk Sale happening Saturday and Sunday, August 15 and 16, 2020, throughout Old Town and Del Ray. The event, which is led by Visit Alexandria in partnership with the City of Alexandria, Old Town Boutique District, Old Town Business Association and Del Ray Business Association, features free parking and more than 60 Alexandria boutiques stepping out of their storefronts and offering deeply discounted summer merchandise.
Shoppers are invited to don their most stylish face covering and follow the map of participating stores to safely stroll outdoors along Alexandria’s red brick sidewalks for end-of-summer savings from locally owned boutiques. New this year, the 1100 block of King Street will be closed to cars as a pedestrian-only hub of the event, and an information tent at King and Fayette streets will offer maps, complimentary hand sanitizer and bottled water. Maps will be posted online the week of the event and are also available for pickup at the Alexandria Visitor Center, 221 King Street.
Items ranging from fashion and jewelry to home decor, culinary goods and seasonal gift items will tempt bargain-hunters from around the region. Find women’s fashion at donna lewis, TSALT, Twist Boutique and Imagine Artwear; Italian leather goods from Serafino; jewelry from She’s Unique and Silver Parrot; home décor and gifts from Boxwood and Patina Polished Living; and wine and gifts from Wine Gallery 108 and Sonoma Cellar. Enjoy sales from Del Ray boutiques including new Sidewalk Sale participant La Brocante, offering vintage and unique home goods, and Top it Off, featuring deals on clothing and accessories.
The City of Alexandria will provide free parking at meters in Old Town on both Saturday and Sunday; street parking is always free in Del Ray.
