Veterans Parade & Observance
Parade at 11am | Main Street in downtown Auburn

One of the largest Veterans Parades west of the Mississippi! The 58th annual Veterans Parade proceeds west on Main Street from E Street SE to A Street NW. This year's event will commence at 11:00am sharp with a flyover from a C-17 Globemaster III by the 446th Airlift Wing from McChord Air Force Base.

You'll be in for a big surprise around 11:10am, as the King County Sheriff's Office is scheduled to fly their UH-1H 'Huey' helicopter, Guardian2 low over the parade route. Spectators can also expect to see numerous marching bands, including America's First Corps Band from Joint Base Lewis-McChord. Be on the lookout for antique military vehicles, honor guards and ROTC Units, military marching units, veteran marching groups, drill teams, community and scouting groups, as well as numerous motorcycle clubs, antique car clubs and more. View the parade line-up HERE. 

Spectators are advised to arrive early, bring a folding chair, a flag, their best salute and plenty of tissue. A handful of Food Vendors will be available on South Division Street, along with our media partners, Talk Radio 570 KVI, Northwest Newsradio AM 1000/97.7 FM and STAR 101.5. Parade emcees Lee Stoll and Theron Zahn of KOMO 4 will be located at the corner of Main and Division.
