Honor. Remember. Give Back.

The largest Memorial Day Weekend event in New England brings troops together for 24 hours to honor fallen soldiers, Gold Star families, and veterans while inspiring support for those stationed overseas.

A 24-Hour Vigil of Honor

Every Memorial Day Weekend, troops stand at attention for 24 hours straight at Capetown Plaza, a solemn tribute that draws thousands to Hyannis. The vigil honors fallen soldiers, Gold Star families, and veterans while rallying the community to collect comfort items for active troops stationed overseas. It's the largest event of its kind in New England, and it transforms this corner of Cape Cod into a place of quiet reverence and collective purpose.
