The American Legion Community Band will present its annual Memorial Day Concert on Monday, May 27, 2024, at 7:00 p.m. This event, held at the gazebo on Main Street, is a cherished tradition in Front Royal, honoring the brave men and women who have made the ultimate sacrifice to preserve our nation’s freedom.

The concert promises an evening filled with patriotic music, stirring tributes, and community spirit. It is a heartfelt reminder of the courage and dedication of our service members, past and present. The band, known for its powerful performances, will play a selection of patriotic tunes that capture the spirit of Memorial Day.
