Arlington Veterans Park Foundation Annual Memorial Day Service
Next date: Monday, May 25, 2026 | 06:30 PM
to 07:30 PM
The Arlington Veterans Park Foundation hosts its annual Memorial Day Service in Veterans Park.
The ceremony, free and open to the public, will be held at the Memorial to the Fallen, a monument inside Veterans Park that was dedicated on Veterans Day in November 2023.
Veterans Day honors all who have served in our military, while Memorial Day honors those who have died while defending our country and its values.
The Memorial to the Fallen monument at Veterans Park honors the 100 young men from Arlington who died in our country’s wars of the 20th and 21st centuries. Among those names are Colonel Neel E. Kearby, who received the Medal of Honor for his actions as an Army Air Force fighter pilot in the Pacific Theatre during World War II, and Preston F. McKee, an early Arlington mayor who died during World War I.
The Memorial Day service will include:
Presentation of the colors by The University of Texas at Arlington Maverick Battalion
A wreath-laying ceremony at the Memorial to the Fallen to honor the more than 100 Arlington residents lost in service
An invitation for Gold Star individuals and families to place a flower in the wreath
Patriotic musical performances by the Arlington Community Band and the Good Times Chorus
