234th Birthday Flag Ceremony
8:30 a.m. to 10 a.m.
In full Tucson-theme, the five flags that have flown over this great city - American, Spanish, Mexican, Confederate, and the State of Arizona - will be presented in a ceremony to celebrate Tucson’s 234th birthday at Presidio San Agustin de Tucson Courtyard. The Tohono O'odham Nation and Pascua Yaqui Tribe flags will also be presented, as will a replica of the 28-star American flag that was brought by the Mormon Battalion and flown over Tucson on December 16, 1846. The ceremony will include an invocation, signing of a proclamation by distinguished guests, the honor guard presentation, along with music and dance. Don’t forget to dress in period costumes and sample a piece of the Tucson birthday cake!
