SALUTE SERIES

by The Philly POPS

The Philly POPS Salute Series encourages recognition of service and commitment through an expanding set of events and activities—each transformative moments of celebration for our community. Salute performances recognize the service and sacrifice of those dedicated to a collective identity of American values and tradition.

Today, The Philly POPS Salute Series enters its 8th year—dazzling audiences and reaching 750,000 members of the service community with free performances.

Signature events include large-scale, free performances on Memorial Day, July 3 on Independence Mall, July 4 at Philadelphia's Independence Day concert, and opening night of the POPS I’ll Be Home for Christmas: A Salute to the Military and First Responders in December.

Donations of any size help to underwrite the cost of the Salute Series and the complimentary tickets we extend to the Military, Veterans, Police and Fire Departments, frontline healthcare workers, and their families. A gift of any size helps. Please donate today!
