In the days surrounding Memorial Day, May 23rd through May 26th, Arlington Memorial Gardens proudly hosts Cincinnati’s 11th Annual Field of Honor®—a powerful tribute set against a year of historic remembrance. As our nation approaches the 250th anniversary of American independence and marks the 25th anniversary of September 11, this display stands as a solemn and inspiring reflection on the courage, sacrifice, and enduring spirit of the United States.

A breathtaking formation of 1,000 American flags—the Stars and Stripes—will wave in unison, each one honoring the brave men and women who have served and continue to serve our country. This moving panorama is more than a display; it is a living symbol of freedom, unity, and remembrance.

You are invited to sponsor a flag in honor of a hero—whether a veteran, active-duty service member, or loved one who has given so much. At the conclusion of the event, your tribute continues as you take your flag home to proudly display on holidays or share with the individual or family you’ve honored.

Proceeds from this meaningful event will benefit Operation Ramp It Up for Veterans, helping improve the lives of those who have served.

Join us in this unforgettable experience—one that truly must be seen to be felt. Walk among the flags, reflect on our nation’s journey, and stand united in gratitude. Admission is free to all visitors.
