Each year, approximately 1,000 midshipmen graduate and receive their commissions from the U.S. Naval Academy in Annapolis, MD. Witness the traditions and history of this week.
You’ll be able to watch the Blue Angels fly high over the Severn River on Wednesday, May 25th. Claim a seat on the Naval Academy seawall for this 2 PM show. This show, and entire week of celebration, helps mark the annual rite of passage for these Navy graduates.

The buses will run Monday – Thursday from 7 AM – 11 PM, Wednesday from 7 AM – Midnight. Buss traffic through Gate 8 will be restricted during the Color Parade on Monday.
