Memorial Day Concert

2463

On May 24, 2020 the Annual Traditional Memorial Day Concert did not disappoint this year even though our country has this pandemic going on, the show must go on. 

The 2020 National Memorial Day Concert will pay tribute to the men and women who are doing so much for all of us in the current fight against COVID-19, and continue the 31 year tradition of honoring and remembering our troops, veterans, wounded warriors, all those who have given their lives for freedom, and their families.

 

Due to the Coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, the traditional live concert on the West Lawn of the U.S. Capitol will not be held to ensure the health and safety of all involved. Instead, it was Live Streamed. The 2020 National Memorial Day Concert was be live streamed on PBS.orgYouTube and Facebook on Sunday, May 24, 2020 at 8PM est.
