Outer Banks Tours Events - 2020 Schedule

We're celebrating the Outer Banks Home Builder Association' 28th annual Parade of Homes and this year, EVERYONE'S INVITED! The 2020 Outer Banks Parade of Homes experience on Columbus Day weekend will be 100% virtual. This means that during these four days you will have exclusive access to some of the most innovative, exciting homes on the Outer Banks. Complete and professional virtual tours will showcase every detail of these newly built home's interior and exterior spaces providing endless inspiration for your Outer Banks dream home. As a tour visitor, you will have access to the masterful builders information and are encouraged to reach out and discuss your  homebuilding plans and dreams!

The Outer Banks, and the Pea Island National Wildlife Refuge in particular, is known as one of the best bird watching destinations in the world, and the annual Wings Over Water celebrates this distinction like no other local festival. The weeklong event, which is held each October, features a wide range of educational programs, lectures, and opportunities to meet and greet with fellow birders. During this year's festival, attendees will also have the opportunity to go on guided birding trips, attend art and photography workshops, take a tram or kayak tour of National Wildlife Refuge, visit an ancient maritime forest, and much, much more. A complete schedule can be found online at the organization's website, and attendees should note that some programs do cost a small fee to participate.
