Celebrating 250 years of America, from its history to its future

In 2026, America will celebrate 250 years of independence. It is a moment to reflect on the country's legacy of ingenuity and to look ahead to the future. To mark this milestone, Google and YouTube are proudly celebrating America's history and continuing to fuel that same spirit of innovation for the next 250 years.

Throughout the year, we’ll use our products and platforms to bring history to life and showcase the country's iconic landmarks, inviting you to explore and broaden your understanding of the heritage, ideas, places and people that connect and define the country. As we look to the future, we’re continuing to celebrate and advance the spirit of ingenuity with AI tools and training to support economic growth and accelerate this new era of American innovation.
