# Event Details

- **Event Name**: 4th of July Celebration - 250 Years of the Hornet Legacy
- **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 04 Jul, 2026 at 10:00 am – Sat, 04 Jul, 2026 at 05:00 pm
- **Event Description**: This Independence Day, as our nation celebrates America’s 250th birthday, we also honor the very first ship to bear the name Hornet, a small 10-gun sloop acquired in 1775 for the newly formed Continental Navy. Among the first vessels to serve the cause of American independence, she helped establish a proud naval tradition that continues nearly two and a half centuries later.

From that first Hornet in 1775 to the legendary aircraft carriers that followed, generations of service-members have carried the Hornet name in defense of our nation. Today, that legacy lives on aboard the historic USS Hornet Museum.

Join us on July 4, 2026, as we celebrate and reflect on 250 years of courage, service, and sacrifice. As fireworks light the skies across the nation, remember that the Hornet story began at the birth of the United States and continues today through the people who preserve and share its history.

?? Celebrate America’s 250th Birthday aboard USS Hornet!
