Perry Group Releases 2026 Event Lineup, Highlights Declaration 250 and Discounted Memberships
The Perry Group has released its 2026 schedule of programs and events, with Declaration 250 set to serve as the central focus of the upcoming season.
The nationally significant commemoration will recognize the true signing date of the Declaration of Independence—August 2, 1776—and is being planned as a major program at Perry’s Victory & International Peace Memorial. The event will align locally with the broader America250 observance and is expected to feature historical interpretation, educational programming, and ceremonial elements tied to the site’s national significance.
The Perry Group has also confirmed the return of the World’s Largest Rubber Duck to Put-in-Bay in 2026. The large-scale attraction has previously drawn widespread regional and national attention and will again serve as one of the season’s most visible public events.
Alongside the release of its 2026 event plans, The Perry Group has opened memberships for the upcoming year. In celebration of America’s 250th anniversary, single and family memberships are currently available at 50% off. Memberships support preservation efforts, educational programming, and public events connected to Perry’s Victory & International Peace Memorial and related initiatives.
While Declaration 250 and the World’s Largest Rubber Duck are among the most prominent announcements to date, The Perry Group will host additional programs and events throughout the 2026 season. A full list of events, along with membership details, is available at theperrygroup.org.
