The 21st annual Patriotic Festival was held in Norfolk with three new stars on stage. The event was held from May 23 to May 25, 2025. Every year the festival hosts three main singers, with many popular openings and vendors.
The purpose of the festival is to celebrate and honor the branches of the army and raise patriotism.
This country festival was headlined by Old Dominion on Friday, Riley Green on Saturday and Jordan Davis on Sunday.
In the past, country artists such as Morgan Wallen, Zac Brown Band and Megan Maroney have performed to raise patriotism and commemorate the fallen soldiers.
“I felt the energy of the crowd helped unite everyone who has served in the military and honor those who fought for us. I got to listen to my favorite artists and sing with my friends. Overall, I had a great experience,” junior Brynn Kimener said.
