Veterans Day is on Monday, Nov. 11, 2024, and in honor of those who have served our country, there will be several ceremonies and events in the Washington, D.C., area. Wreath-laying ceremonies, free entry to national parks and an F-16 flyover at National Harbor are just a few ways to mark the holiday.

The National Veterans Day Parade featured military marching bands that included the National Guard Band, Navy Band, U.S. Marine Drum and Bugle Corps and the 3rd Army Fife and Drug Corps. Several high school and college bands from across the nation also participated.
