Branson and Springfield will welcome the U.S. Navy this summer as the region hosts its first-ever Navy Week from August 25 through August 31, 2025. The week-long celebration will feature Navy personnel, equipment displays, musical performances, and a variety of community events designed to connect residents with the Navy’s mission and people.
Highlights of the week include community service projects across the area, school presentations from active-duty sailors, and opportunities for the public to meet senior Navy leaders. Residents will also enjoy special performances from the Navy Band Great Lakes, known for its dynamic mix of patriotic, popular, and traditional music.
The showcase event will be the Branson Wings of Pride Air Show on August 30, headlined by the U.S. Navy Blue Angels. The precision flight demonstration team is expected to draw large crowds as it delivers one of the nation’s most recognized military performances.
Organizers say Navy Week provides a unique opportunity for Missourians to engage with sailors and learn more about the Navy’s role in national defense and global security. Branson/Springfield is one of several cities chosen nationwide to host a Navy Week in 2025.
