Navy Week Information

The U.S. Navy is setting a course for the Connecticut River Valley this fall, launching the Hartford-Springfield region’s first-ever Navy Week from September 22–28. Navy Weeks bring the fleet to the community, with 50 to 60 active-duty Sailors from across the country engaging in outreach events designed to educate, inspire, and strengthen community ties.

Connecticut River Valley Navy Week will be uniquely anchored around The Big E — New England’s iconic multi-state fair — offering the Navy an opportunity to engage with thousands of visitors across the six-state region. With many events taking place throughout a region known for its innovation, education, and industry — Navy Week aims to build lasting partnerships in one of the Northeast’s most dynamic population centers.

Since its inception in 2005, the Navy Week program has visited more than 95 markets across the United States. Those in the Hartford-Springfield area can expect to meet:

  • Senior Navy Leaders: Meet and hear from Rear Adm. John Menoni, senior executive for Connecticut River Valley Navy Week.
  • Namesake Ships: Interact with Sailors serving aboard the USS Hartford (SSN-768), USS Connecticut (SSN 22) or the USS Springfield (SSN 761).
  • U.S. Navy Band Northeast: Enjoy live musical performances and masterclasses led by talented Navy musicians.
  • Naval History and Heritage Command: Explore the rich connection between New England and the Navy through interactive presentations and educational programs
  • USS Constitution: Witness demonstrations featuring the Navy’s oldest commissioned ship and its enduring legacy.
  • Navy Talent Acquisition Group New England: Discover opportunities within the Navy through community projects, displays, and career discussions.
  • Plus many more Sailors serving across the Fleet representing a wide range of naval STEM capabilities, including hometown Sailors from the “Hart” of New England.
