Douglas County’s Veterans Day Parade is Tuesday.

A county release said the event will be held in downtown Roseburg, starting at 11:00 a.m. Known as Oregon’s Greatest Veterans Day Parade, it has been held every year since 1955.  The theme for this year’s parade is, “1775-2025: 250 Years of Military Excellence”.

The parade will follow the traditional route, starting at the corner of Northeast Fowler Street and Northeast Diamond Lake Boulevard. It will turn left onto Northeast Jackson Street which becomes Southeast Jackson Street, then turning left onto Northeast Lane Avenue, left onto Southeast Main Street, right onto Southeast Douglas Avenue and concluding right in front of the Douglas County Courthouse.

The 70th anniversary parade in Roseburg was recognized again this year, as one of only 56 regional Veterans Day parade sites selected as the Top 2024 Veterans Day Observances Across the United States, by the National Veterans Day Committee. The local event has been awarded this honor every year.
