Flag Ceremony
A tradition for over 40 years, the Veterans Flag Ceremony honors an American Veteran in this moving tribute.
When visiting Cape May, be sure to leave at least one night open to join us for our Veterans Flag Ceremony, which are held each year:
Memorial Weekend - Saturday @ 7pm June - Saturdays @ 7pm July & August - Mondays, Wednesdays & Saturdays @ 7pm Last Flag Ceremony - Labor Day Weekend Saturday @ 7pm
If you would like your veteran to be considered for a Flag Ceremony in 2026, we will be accepting bios and photos from January 1 through April 30, 2026. Ceremony Recipients will be announced on May 15, 2026. Stay tuned here for more info.
We are immensely proud of this tradition which has been a staple of our area for over 40 years. All of the flags that we fly at our mast are veterans' casket flags that families bring with them from their loved one's funeral. We are honored to fly them here at Sunset Beach. If you have not experienced this emotionally moving tradition, we invite you to be a participant in this celebration of being an American. A special thank you to Ritchie Grasso for reading our veterans bios!
