A tradition for all. Star-Spangled Salute is one of The Pavilion’s longest-standing traditions – a proud mid-year marker of the way music brings us together. Join us for a completely free night of powerful patriotic tunes, lovely lawn vibes and many, many memories. Every year, our community shows up to celebrate the wonder of what we have in common, the brilliance of what makes us different and the music that has long inspired us. Star-Spangled Salute, like all of The Pavilion’s Performing Arts shows, is completely free to attend. No registration is required.
