St. Joe Today invites the community to join them for the 2026 Memorial Day Parade on Friday, May 22 in downtown St. Joseph. This event is sponsored by Lest We Forget.
This yearly tradition honors those who have served and sacrificed their lives in service of our country. The parade starts at 12:00p and travels along Lake Boulevard from Park Street to Port Street in downtown St. Joseph. Immediately following the parade, there will be a short memorial ceremony held at the John E.N. Howard Bandshell.
