Miami Beach marks Veterans Day with a parade along Ocean Drive from 5th to 15th Streets.
The plan
Miami Beach marks Veterans Day with a parade along Ocean Drive from 5th to 15th Streets. The procession gives families a free public way to take part in the holiday and honor veterans, without needing a theater or attraction ticket. Pick a viewing point along the announced route, agree on a meeting place before the sidewalks get busy, and leave time to reach the area before the parade begins.
Before you go
The official parade time is 11:11am on Wednesday, November 11. Use the city’s current traffic and transit notices for access, and do not expect the regular water taxi to operate on the holiday. The wider calendar listing covers more hours than the parade itself; no parade finish time is promised here.
Plan your visit
Use the organizer’s current listing for ticket availability and any last-minute changes. Save the exact date, address and admission terms before leaving; a listing on our calendar does not reserve a ticket. Keep some space around the event for travel, and contact the venue directly if you need an accessible route or a particular seating arrangement.
Before you go
Bring sun protection and water, and make room on the sidewalk for other spectators and people moving through.
