Annual Veterans Day Program

Join us this Veterans Day, November 11, at 3:00 PM, for the 27th annual Military Women’s Memorial Veterans Day ceremony. The ceremony, one of the major observances in the nation’s capital, is free and open to the public and will include formal military honors, a keynote address, veterans’ remarks, and wreathlayings.

In celebration of America’s Veterans, guests are invited for light refreshments following the program. To make sure we have adequate seating and refreshments, please RSVP, indicating the number attending. We look forward to having you join us for the major national day to honor America’s veterans.

Our program will be held inside the Memorial.

Situated at the ceremonial entrance to Arlington National Cemetery, the Military Women’s Memorial is the only major national memorial and education center dedicated to preserving and honoring the history of all servicewomen – past and present. More than 3 million women have served in the military since the American Revolution, yet the stories of these courageous patriots are largely untold. For more than 25 years, the mission of the Memorial has been to honor and tell the stories of service of all women who have served our nation. By ensuring these stories of honor, duty, and sacrifice live on in perpetuity, future generations of girls and women are able to see clear pathways and leadership examples through military service. The Memorial educates and inspires through innovative and interactive exhibitions, our world-class collections, and engaging programs and events for all generations.
