SB SPCL ARL ARLX003 202
This year, as we celebrate the Year of the Club and America 250, and we experience the tail end of the productive Solar Cycle 25, ARRL Field Day 2026 is slated to be an exciting opportunity for amateur radio operators to experience the joy and community of radio.
Many consider Field Day to be the highlight of their year. Since its inception in 1933, Field Day remains the largest ham radio operating event in North America, and is how many first learn the magic of amateur radio.
We encourage all operators to, in support of year of the club, find active groups near them by using the ARRL Field Day Locator search page at, arrl.org/field-day-locator, and help radio clubs establish a strong presence for this year’s field day.
Remember to publicize your participation in the event, using social media, with the hashtag #ARRLFD.
There are bonus points available for obtaining media publicity, so be sure to reach out to your local media outlets.
Want to have your photos appear in QST? Be sure to share your stories and photos via the Field Day Soapbox.
After the dust settles and all the gear is packed away, don’t forget to submit your entry using the online entry form at field-day.arrl.org before 2059 UTC on Tuesday, July 28, 2026. |
