The city of Cape Coral invites residents and visitors to honor our nation’s flag at the 2026 Flag Day Celebration. City leaders will mark this patriotic occasion with a ceremony honoring the enduring symbol of the country’s unity and freedom.

The event will take place Sunday, June 14, at 9 a.m., at the Veterans Memorial Area in Four Mile Cove Ecological Preserve, 2500 S.E. 24th St. 

The event is open to the general public, and no reservations are required to attend.

Fuller Metz Funeral Home will be providing a flag drop-off station, allowing residents to respectfully retire any American Flag that is no longer suitable for display.

Flag Day commemorates the adoption of the United States flag by the Continental Congress on June 14, 1777. In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson officially established June 14 as Flag Day, a tradition that continues to inspire pride and patriotism across the nation.
