Festival Map

Illustrated map of Folklife Festival grounds on the National Mall. Most tents and venues are between 12th Street and 7th Street, just south of Madison Drive and the National Museum of Natural History.

In 2025, the Folklife Festival will take place on the National Mall between Seventh and Twelfth streets and inside the Arts and Industries Building.

Parking around the National Mall is extremely limited, so we encourage visitors to take Metro, rideshare, walk, or bike, if possible. This Google map shows nearest Metrorail stops (red) and Capital Bikeshare stations (yellow).
