Fleet Week, a Memorial Day weekend tradition in New York City, is hosting its first fully virtual event this year amid the coronavirus pandemic.

The U.S. Navy, Marine Corps and Coast Guard have been hosting a series of online commemorative events for the public, such as morning colors aboard Naval Station Norfolk in Virginia, a highlight reel of Memorial Day parades in New York City, a performance of “Taps” and other commemorations.

Fleet Week, a time when active military ships dock in the city for a week, typically has included activities such as guided tours of the ships or a military flyover.

This year, the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum hosted a virtual Memorial Day ceremony that included the singing of "The Star-Spangled Banner" and a ceremonial wreath-laying.
