National Memorial Day Concert

The 33rd annual National Memorial Day Concert is back this weekend. Meet the musicians and performers who will honor the people who have served in the armed forces. 

Meet the performers of the 32nd annual National Memorial Day Concert, pre-taped this year instead of broadcast live from the U.S. Capitol, as it honors America's servicemen and -women.

The National Memorial Day Concert is hallmark of the beginning of summer. While it must adapt to the COVID-19 pandemic this year and not broadcast live from the U.S. Capitol, it will still feature a star slate of performers as well as members of the military in a unique adaptation.

Every year American troops are honored with a National Memorial Day Concert on the lawn of the Capitol, broadcast live by PBS the day before Memorial Day. Meet the performers, including some famous Chicago natives, in this patriotic special here.
