Taps at the Tower
Taps, a musical piece sounded at dusk and at funerals, has a rich and storied history in the United States. It has long been associated with the U.S. Military, and is often played at civilian events around the country. The National WWI Museum and Memorial presents the eighth annual Taps at the Tower each evening at sunset (8:45 p.m.) from Sunday, June 20 – Saturday, June 26, 2021. Taps at the Tower links the beauty and simplicity of the Taps bugle call with the symbolism of the Liberty Memorial. On June 21, in celebration of Make Music Kansas City, Folk in the Flow will play prior to the Taps ceremony. Come early to enjoy the concert at 7:30pm and then stay for Taps.
