2026 Field Of Honor®

Memorial Day Weekend

May 23 – 25, 2026

All proceeds to benefit organizations that serve veterans and first responders and Fort Collins Breakfast Rotary Projects

The Field of Honor is a breath-taking display of 500 American flags that fly in formation honoring our country’s heroes: active military, veterans, first responders, community leaders, teachers and other personal heroes.

Sponsored by Fort Collins Breakfast Rotary, this annual event provides our community an opportunity to reflect, remember and be thankful for those who have made an important difference in our lives.

The Field Of Honor will be up from Saturday, May 23, until 3 p.m. Monday, May 25. Viewing is encouraged during daylight hours when Rotary members are present at the 

This is a very special year for Field of Honor as it coincides with our Nation’s 250th and Colorado’s 150th anniversaries. To celebrate, we will expand the field of 500 flags to include the Declaration of Independence and the 26 Historic Flags that have been used since our Nation’s founding. Each flag includes a placard showing when the flag was authorized and what the flag’s design represents. What an incredible educational opportunity honoring our Nation’s heritage!

In addition to the Honor Medallion ($50), we are offering an Anniversary Medallion, with America 250 on one side and Colorado 150 on the other side.
