Join the staff, volunteers, and park partners of Manassas National Battlefield Park as we commemorate Memorial Day, May 25, 2026 from 10AM until 5PM.

Memorial Day's origins lie in the end of the Civil War when people decorated the graves of their loved ones who fell during the war in order to remember and honor them.

This year, the park will offer special programming, children's activities, and living history demonstrations, as well as time and space for reflection as we remember those who fell at the Battles of Manassas.

Schedule to come.
