EarthCam - America 250 Celebration

Seen Together. Live.

A national partnership to showcase America’s most iconic places and hidden gems through live cameras, connecting communities, organizations, and audiences worldwide as we celebrate the nation’s 250th anniversary in 2026.

Live Authentic Views

EarthCam is bringing together live, authentic views from towns and cities across the country to celebrate America’s 250th anniversary.

Community Driven

This initiative invites communities large and small to share their view and help tell America’s story as it exists today. Participation is community-driven, rooted in local pride, and powered by live cameras that capture the real world as it unfolds.

Seen Together. Live.

No influencers. No staged moments. Just America, seen together, live.
