Memorial Day Parade

The City of Bowie's Memorial Day Parade is organized as a way to recognize members of the Armed Services, past and present, and to honor the memory of those who made the ultimate sacrifice in service to their country.

This popular patriotic event features an entertaining variety of marching bands, performing groups, floats, and local clubs and organizations.

Route

The parade steps off from the Belair Annex on Belair Drive at 11 a.m. and marches down Belair Drive, then turns right on Sussex Lane, and will end at the corner of Sussex Lane and Stonybrook Drive. The reviewing stand will be on Sussex Lane (near the intersection with Stonybrook Drive).  

There are great viewing locations all along the parade route. Bleachers are available next to the reviewing stand or attendees can stand, sit on the curb, or bring their own seats.
