The Heroes Honor Festival will honor Vietnam veterans on May 27-28 at the Daytona International Speedway in Daytona Beach, Florida. The festival will offer several events for the public and Vietnam veterans, including a tribute concert headlined by Toby Keith. There will also be special events just for Vietnam veterans and their families.
A private event for Vietnam veterans and their families is planned for Friday night and will include division meet ups and reunions, a pinning ceremony, and a sacred vigil for a Vietnam Veteran Remembrance of the 58,479 KIA. General Jerry Boykin will be the featured guest at this event.
On Saturday, May 28, there will be several events including a Veterans Resource Expo, A10 & B2 Squadron Fly Overs, a Patriot Parachute Team, a Welcome Home Ceremony, and a concert by Toby Keith and other music legends.
Vietnam veterans can get a free festival ticket, which includes the concert, while supplies last. A limited number of free tickets are available for spouses attending with a Vietnam veteran. Active military and veterans who have served in other times outside of the Vietnam War also get a discount.
The festival is hosted by Engage Your Destiny, an organization that offers different programs to support active-duty Service Members and Veterans. QOVF will have a booth at the Honoring our Heroes Festival, so if you are attending, we hope you’ll stop by and say hello!
