ABOUT THE EVENT

Step back in time and honor Fairhaven’s place in American history at the 250th Anniversary Commemoration of the First Naval Battle of the Revolutionary War. Hosted by the Fairhaven Village Militia, this special event at Fort Phoenix marks the battle fought just off our shores in 1775, when local patriots engaged British forces at sea.

Join us for a short but meaningful ceremony to reflect on this pivotal moment in the fight for independence and celebrate Fairhaven’s role in the Revolution.

This free event is open to all. Don’t miss this chance to experience living history in the very place where our fight for freedom took shape!
