Due to the coronavirus, many events have been canceled or postponed, and our listings may not reflect those changes. Please check with organizers before making plans.
Every Friday at 5pm join us for Stars & Stripes at The Lawn, Memorial City’s newest greenspace, to honor our country, those who have and continue to serve, and their families through a patriotic ceremony.
The inaugural event series kicks off Friday, January 19th, 2018 with a color guard performance by Scarborough High School’s JROTC program and live trumpet music. The weekly tribute will feature live performances by local military community groups such as Houston-area ROTC, Boy Scouts and other military programs, as well as live musical renditions of American classics, including ‘Grand Ole Flag’ and ‘God Bless America.’ The event will also offer light bites for purchase by a rotating roster of Memorial City restaurants.
‘Stars & Stripes’ is the first event series of many to debut at The Lawn. The greenspace joins the lively Memorial City development, alongside the recently opened Hotel ZaZa Memorial City and Ciro’s Italian Grill. [Organizer's description]
