Memorial Day is the unofficial start to summer and a time to reflect on those who gave all dating back to 1776.
The upcoming holiday is about remembering those who have served and given their all so many could live free and pursue happiness. It will also be about the country’s 250th anniversary, making patriotic holidays a little more special in 2026. The usual pageantry of parades, ceremonies and large gatherings of loved ones will be bigger and more sentimental.

Memorial Day Facts
Did You Know: Memorial Day is Monday, May 25, 2020. The holiday began after the American Civil War in 1868, when the Grand Army of the Republic, an organization of Union veterans established it. It was originally called Decoration Day, because the citizens were encouraged to decorate the graves of those who died in the war. By the 20th Century, competing Union and Confederate holiday traditions merged and Memorial Day honored all Americans killed while in military service.
“On this Memorial Day, it is right for us to remember the living and the dead for whom the call of their country has meant pain and sacrifice. A grateful nation is in their debt.” – President Lyndon B. Johnson, 1966
