About Flag Day

Flag Day commemorates the day the Second Continental Congress passed a resolution which adopted the Stars and Stripes as the United States' flag on June 14, 1777.

In 1916, President Woodrow Wilson proclaimed June 14 National Flag Day. Many celebrate this non-federal holiday by displaying the flag in front of homes and businesses. Some communities also hold parades or other ceremonies to mark the occasion. CEG
