ARRL Field Day 2026

Hosted by Santa Cruz County and San Lorenzo Valley Amateur Radio Clubs

June 27 - 28, 2026 in Aptos, CA

Field Day is ham radio's open house. Every June, more than 31,000 hams throughout North America set up temporary transmitting stations in public places to demonstrate ham radio's science, skill and service to our communities and our nation. It combines public service, emergency preparedness, community outreach, and technical skills all in a single event. Field Day has been an annual event since 1933, and remains the most popular event in ham radio.

Field Day will be presented by the Santa Cruz County and San Lorenzo Valley Amateur Radio Clubs
