It’s hard to narrow down the best things about Richmond. But Style Weekly and its readers do it each year anyway! Last night, Style Weekly hosted its annual ‘Best Fest’ at VPM’s new downtown headquarters on E. Broad St. to celebrate the winners of Style’s “Best of Richmond” readers’ poll.
Over 300 attendees packed VPM’s new building eager to sample some of the most delicious food and drinks that Richmond has to offer. There was music, festive lighting, screen printing stations, art displays, live performances and so much more!

Earlier this year, Style Weekly asked readers to vote for their local favorites in over 100 categories divided by section into arts and culture, food and drink, people and places, and goods and services. The results were revealed in Style’s 2026 “Best of Richmond” issue, which hit newsstands back in June.
Don’t forget, your first chance to get a look at Style Weekly’s “Fall Arts Preview” is coming up on Sept. 4 at RVA First Fridays!
