Patriots' Day är en amerikansk bemärkelsedag och helgdag till minne av slagen vid Lexington och Concord, som blev inledningen på det amerikanska frihetskriget. Slaget ägde rum den 19 april 1775, och minnesdagen firas varje år den tredje måndagen i april i delstaterna Massachusetts och Maine, samt i statliga skolor i Wisconsin.
Dagen markeras bland annat med historiska iscensättningar av slagen.
Boston Marathon arrangeras även på denna dag.

Minute Man Statue Lexington Massachusetts.jpg
This is a photograph of the statue often incorrectly believed to represent Captain John Parker sculpted by Henry Hudson Kitson and erected in 1900. This statue in Lexington, Massachusetts is commonly called "The Lexington Minuteman" because it was meant to represent the Minutemen generally rather than any individual. There are no known portraits of John Parker made while he was alive.
It is often confused with the Daniel Chester French statue The Minute Man in nearby Concord (shown at right).
