The five I'd lead with

Ticketed indoor festival.
Official detailsSpring Native Plant Sale at Morven Park
More useful than a casual browse, with good vendors and actual expert help. A smart Saturday pick if you want to come home with something besides lunch.
Bring boxes if you plan to buy plants.
Official detailsJUMP - America's Van Halen Experience
A clean Saturday night move if you want loud guitars and a packed room. Good counterweight to all the softer winery and garden picks.

An easy Sunday landing with music, views, and less pressure than a bigger plan. Best if you want to finish the weekend on the softer side.

Three more worth knowing
Birding Banshee
SaturdayFor the early crowd: birds, fresh air, and a Saturday morning that actually feels local. Strong pick if you like getting out before the county wakes up.
The Pietasters
FridayAn easy downtown option if you want Friday night to feel lively without overthinking it. Good alternative if jazz is not your lane.
Live Music Series - Dixie Mitchell

Three ways to play the weekend
If you want the most Loudoun-looking weekend
Do Morven Park on Saturday, Rockland Farm on Sunday, and close out at Fleetwood if you want something softer later in the day.
If you want your weekend to feel more alive
Pick Sweet Jazz Festival for Friday or Saturday night, then use JUMP at Tally Ho if you still want a louder Leesburg option.
If you want easy planning with low friction
Skip the registration-heavy events and just do Cana on Saturday and Fleetwood on Sunday.
