This old-fashioned concert in the park features marches, patriotic songs, and pop tunes. The concert kicks off with the Presentation of Colors by the Little Rock Air Force Base Honor Guard; the Pledge of Allegiance led by Colonel Kent Stone, United States Marine Corp (Retired), and the National Anthem performed by Little Rock Winds under the direction of conductor Israel Getzov. Military veterans and active members will be recognized as the band performs the service songs of all the U.S. Armed Forces.

During the concert, there will be a silent auction of the conductor's baton. Up for bid is the opportunity to conduct the band's performance of Sleigh Ride during the Christmas concert on December 10, 2026.

The celebration is sponsored by Stone Bank, MacArthur Museum of Arkansas Military History and Little Rock Parks and Recreation. Blue Bell Creameries will provide free ice cream and Woodmen Life will provide free hand-held flags to wave. Central Arkansas Water will provide free ice water for filling your water bottle.

The performance will be held on the old parade ground behind the museum. A designated handicap drop-off will be available on the east parking lot near the parade ground. Attendees should bring lawn chairs and may bring picnic baskets.

If it rains, the concert will move over to the Arkansas Museum of Fine Arts Theater in MacArthur Park.

Admission is free for the concert as well as for the MacArthur Military History Museum. Donations accepted.

Little Rock Winds was founded in 1993 to recognize the diverse heritage of the wind band tradition in Arkansas. It is dedicated to providing Arkansas communities with live wind band music, including a variety of compositions and transcriptions that inspire audiences, challenge the players, and preserve the wind band tradition. LR Winds is an important outlet for wind and percussion musicians in the central Arkansas area. The approximately 48 professional and semi-professional musicians are selected by audition and participate for personal development and enjoyment and as a service to the community. Six concerts are performed annually in Little Rock, and the band has performed statewide, from Texarkana to Cherokee Village, Harrison to McGehee.
