Use Friday and Saturday before Sunday gets messy.
Loudoun Loop is the 5 best things to do in Loudoun this weekend, sent every Thursday morning.
This is a plan-ahead weekend. Friday is easy, Saturday is loaded, and Sunday looks wetter, so do the outdoor stuff early. Start with Peach Fuzztival and sunflowers in Bluemont if you want the daytime family plan, then pick one evening between Tarara, polo, Loudoun United, or Leesburg's free Town Green show.
Weather note: Last checked Thursday, July 30. The National Weather Service point forecast for Leesburg showed a sunny Friday near 88, a partly sunny Saturday near 90, a 40% storm chance Saturday night, and showers and thunderstorms likely Sunday. Keep outdoor plans earlier and check event status before leaving.

Three ways to plan it
If you want the easiest weather plan
Do a free Friday concert, then hit Peach Fuzztival early Saturday. Save Saturday night for the outdoor event that still looks good when you check the radar.
If you want the big Saturday
Make Bluemont the daytime stop, then choose one evening plan: Tarara for music, Morven Park for polo, Segra Field for soccer, or Town Green for a free concert.
If Sunday is your only window
Keep it short and early with Cascades Farmers Market. If storms stick around, look at Tally Ho for an indoor evening option.
