    Kick off summer travel planning

    Many treat Memorial Day weekend as summer’s start. Compare with July 4th and Labor Day via related links, and book before weekends-left runs out.

When is Memorial Day?

US Memorial Day is the last Monday in May, honoring service members who died in military service. It differs from Veterans Day (November 11), which honors all veterans.

Memorial Day observances

Ceremonies at cemeteries, flags at half-staff until noon, parades, and family gatherings are common. Many also use the long weekend for trips and barbecues.

Ceremony and travel timing

Open the calendar day for local events, set a morning alarm for a service, and fullscreen the countdown at a community display. Pair with Father’s Day for June planning.

Why a Memorial Day countdown URL
