About

Freedom was forged here-and we’re commemorating it with a day full of history and hometown pride.

The festivities begin with a wreath-laying ceremony and patriotic parade down Main Street, featuring The Fifes & Drums of York Town. Then, explore Yorktown’s historic treasures like the Nelson House, Custom House, Watermen’s Museum, and more. Walk the very grounds where America secured her independence.

It’s history brought to life in the heart of where it all happened.
