Blue Victory Dinner

The Blue Victory Dinner is the biggest event of the year for Arlington Democrats! Our 2023 theme -- "Democrats Deliver" -- emphasizes our party's success on behalf of everyday people, from better jobs to healthcare, infrastructure to civil and individual rights. Join us to hear from inspiring Democratic leaders, connect with old friends, and make new ones. We will also honor our Volunteers of the Year and renew our commitment to making Arlington and Virginia a more just and prosperous place for all. Your support of the Blue Victory Dinner will help ensure we have the financial resources to lead Democrats to victory in November and take back the Virginia House of Delegates.

Purchase your tickets at the early bird rate today! Ticket prices will increase on April 7. Don’t forget to add on a ticket to the Blue Victory After Dark (BVAD) Celebration! Organized by Arlington Young Democrats and open to adults of all ages, this post-dinner party will feature music and even more energized Democratic spirit!
