The City of Manassas is home to the largest regional airport in the state of Virginia, a 7,000 square foot Museum on eight acres displaying permanent and temporary historical exhibits, and the Harris Pavilion – an entertainment venue during warm weather and an ice rink from December to March. The City is also home to one-of-a-kind shops, unique restaurants, the arts and historical landmarks.
