America Made in Virginia: 250 Years Together

This July 4th, AMERICA MADE IN VIRGINIA: 250 YEARS TOGETHER celebrates the nation’s Semiquincentennial with a star-filled tribute set in the revolutionary capital of Colonial Williamsburg’s Historic Area. Blending live performance, music, historic interpretation, and large-scale visual spectacle to create an inspiring national event that connects the nation’s founding to the present day, the special is designed as a celebration and a unifying national moment.
