Veterans Day Parade ()

Military veterans will be honored this year in Lafayette’s inaugural Veterans Day Parade in November to pay tribute to their sacrifices and contributions made while serving their country. Spearheaded by Lafayette native and retired Sgt. Major Anazia Andrus-Sam, the parade, planned for the official Veterans Day observance on November 11, aims to bring awareness about the significant role veterans play in shaping our society and foster a sense of unity within the community. 

The inaugural Veterans Parade will take place on Veterans Day, November 11, 2023 at 11:00 a.m. The parade route will cover the heart of Lafayette, passing down Jefferson Street, Johnston Street, and Garfield Street and ending at Parc International with a jamboree. 

All veterans in the Acadiana area are invited to register to ride in the parade and are welcome to attend to the jamboree at Parc International following the parade for food, fun, and veteran resources. Additional events will also be held at Cité des Arts after. More information to come. 

To register to ride in the parade, please visit: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/veterans-day-parade-and-celebration-tickets-666909633667.
