2008 Greater Dallas Veterans Parade
November 11, 2008
In 2008 the Veterans Day parade will be in downtown Dallas. It will be on Tuesday, November 11th, with massing of the colors and the 11th hour ceremony in front of City Hall. The parade will commence following the official ceremony. The route will start at Reunion Arena, will proceed north on Houston Street, east on Main Street, south on Ervay Street, west on Young Street, south on Akard Street and pass in review in front of City Hall.
The parade route is similar to prior years. After passing in review, parade units will turn south on Ervay and disperse south of City Hall.
Military vehicles and equipment, veterans organizations, civic and corporate displays will be available for viewing at 9:30 AM in front of City Hall and will be dismantled after the parade.
In addition to our annual "Salute to those who are serving, those who have served and those who have made the ultimate sacrifice," this year we will take special note of our wounded heroes.
