To celebrate America's 250th birthday on July 4, 2026, the
largest fleet of the world's most magnificent tall ships and
gray hull ships will sail into New York Harbor, pass in
Presidential review, and salute the Statue of Liberty.
In the tradition of the 1976 Bicentennial, the Statue of
Liberty Centennial in 1986, the Columbus Quincentennial in
1992, the Millennium celebration in 2000, and the
Bicentennial of The Star-Spangled Banner in 2012,
international fleets will arrive in grand style and spend a
week in the heart
of the nation's first capital.
Sailors will come together in the universal fellowship of
freedom, hope,
and opportunity that our country has always represented.
In addition, Sail4th has a Memorandum of Understanding with
the U.S. Navy for the events of July 4th in the Port of New
York & New Jersey. The Navy is hosting only the Seventh
International Naval Review that morning, a solemn
time-honored ritual involving more than 53 U.S. and foreign
warships.
