A National Gathering of Service, Stewardship, and Unity.

Created by the non-profit organization Ready and Forward, Legacy Fest is an event held by veterans, first responders, service families, and community members — in order to bring together the broader community through ceremony, music, history, wellness, and mission-driven activation.

A first-of-its-kind national festival that honors history, strengthens community, and moves our nation forward.

Legacy Fest is more than a concert, festival, or charity event. It’s a gathering built around ceremony, music, history, wellness, and mission-driven activation — creating meaningful connections and lasting impact.

This is a large-scale movement designed to restore purpose, rebuild community, and elevate culture through shared experience, service, and remembrance.

Legacy Fest will take place in San Diego, California.

Legacy Fest takes place on June 13th, 2026 — which holds significant historical convergence.

• 2026 is the year of America’s 250th birthday.

• June 12th, 2026 is Women Veterans Day.

• June 13th, 2026 is Legacy Fest.

• June 14th, 2026 is the United States Army’s birthday.

• June 19th, 2026 is Juneteenth.

America is fractured by politics, trauma, race, isolation, and loss of shared meaning.

Legacy Fest is about gathering, unity, culture, and healing. It is where America gathers to heal, remember, and move forward.

Legacy is not what you leave behind. It is what you build while you are still here.
