Navy Week returns to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, Aug. 4-10, 2025, for the first time since 2019. As part of a nationwide outreach effort, Sailors will connect with the local Sioux Falls community through a variety of performances, educational events, and service projects.

This year’s Sioux Falls Navy Week holds special significance as it coincides with the U.S. Navy’s 250th birthday - a historic milestone celebrating a quarter-millennium of maritime excellence, national security, and global leadership.

More than 50 Sailors will take part in Sioux Falls Navy Week, connecting with the community and sharing their experiences serving in the Fleet. For Sioux Falls native and Director, Air Warfare, Rear Adm. Michael Wosje, Navy Week is a meaningful opportunity to return home and highlight the vital role communities like Sioux Falls play in building the Navy’s strength.

Join Sailors at one of our many Navy Week events:

• August 4-9: Displays and performances at the Sioux Empire Fair
• August 6, 10AM: Discover Aviation Day festivities at the Maverick Air Center
• August 7, 7PM: Navy recognition with the Canaries at the Bird Cage
• August 8, 8PM: Navy Band Great Lakes performance at Leavitt at the Falls
