On Saturday, June 13, 2026, Downtown Findlay, the Flag City Community VET FEST Music Festival will be celebrating our nation’s heroes while bring the community together for an unforgettable experience. This festival will feature live music, food trucks, adult beverages and special recognition for local veterans, veteran-friendly employers and veteran owned business.

Our inaugural Flag City Community Vet Fest (June 2025) was a smashing success. We invite you to watch our recap video.

We’re looking for community partners to help us make this event a success. Our goal is to secure $35,000 in sponsorships to cover essential event costs (stage, lighting, security, entertainment). Proceeds from ticket and merchandise sales will benefit:
• Hancock County Wreaths Across America Endowment Fund
• Hancock County Veterans Endowment (supporting a veteran housing initiative)

Your sponsorship will directly impact veterans in our community while giving your business high-visibility exposure.

This is for anyone in the Hancock County surrounding community who wants to come out and listen to great music by local bands, grab some refreshments and food, and show their support for local Hancock County Veterans.

There will be military vehicles on display, recognition of local veterans and veteran-supportive organizations, commemorative SWAG for sale, and lots of great music!
