What is open

Spring break is not a town or county holiday, so Town of Leesburg offices, the library, trash pickup and Loudoun County Transit run on their normal schedules that week.

What this means for you

Mark March 22-26, 2027, and plan around Easter weekend at the end of it. Book Leesburg Animal Park camps early, because each day is capped at 20 children, and watch the town’s camps page in early March for summer camp registration. We will add 2027 spring break camps and events as organizers post them.
