Navy Day, celebrated annually on October 27th in the United States, honors the service and sacrifices of the men and women of the U.S. Navy. Established in 1922 by the Navy League of the United States, this day recognizes the Navy’s contributions to national security, maritime freedom, and global stability. It’s a time to celebrate the rich history of the Navy, its traditions, and the vital role it plays in protecting the nation’s interests at sea.

On Navy Day, naval bases, ships, and communities across the country host events such as parades, open houses, and commemorative ceremonies. It’s an opportunity for the public to learn about the Navy’s missions, see the latest naval technologies, and show appreciation for the sailors and their families who serve. Navy Day is a tribute to the courage, skill, and dedication of those who wear the uniform and a reminder of the Navy’s enduring commitment to safeguarding the nation’s freedom on the world’s oceans.
