The Speakers Bureau is designed to provide an opportunity for Virginia Beach-based neighborhood and civic organizations to learn more about City services, programs and initiatives from City staff.

From property code enforcement to paving maintenance to aging in place information, City of Virginia Beach staff members have vast reserves of knowledge and experience. Now, these staff experts are available to share their expertise on a wide range of topics to groups of all sizes through the new Virginia Beach Speakers Bureau.

Organizers for neighborhood and community groups can request a speaker free of charge year-round. Staff members from the Public Engagement Division of the Communications Office will work with organizers to help select a suitable topic and arrange for a speaker to attend the group’s meeting.

Ready to get started? Fill out a speaker request form or contact the Public Engagement Division at SpeakUp@vbgov.com for more information.

Please submit your request at least 60 days before the event to allow for scheduling, and we will make every effort to provide a qualified speaker for your desired meeting date.
