VA Issues Veterans Day Guide: 73rd National Observance to Be Held and Livestreamed at Arlington National Cemetery on November 11
The U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) has issued its VetResources guide ahead of Veterans Day. The 73rd National Veterans Day Observance will be held on November 11 at Arlington National Cemetery in Arlington County, Virginia, and livestreamed starting at 11 a.m. Eastern, with music, ceremonial tributes and remarks honoring all who have served. VA-approved regional observance sites number 48 across 24 states, and the public can find a ceremony near them on VA's website.
The guide rounds up Veterans Day benefits and offers. A list of free meals, coffee, discounts, haircuts and family outings from businesses nationwide is updated through November 11. Eligible Veterans and Gold Star Families can claim a free lifetime pass to national parks and other federal recreation sites at any time, not only on Veterans Day. On home buying, eligible VA home loan borrowers may buy with no down payment and no private mortgage insurance (PMI); VA Deputy Secretary Lawrence recently discussed with the National Association of Realtors how the benefit helps Veterans build equity and put down roots. The guide also links the 2026 Teachers Resource Guide, which brings stories of service and sacrifice into classrooms and communities.
On health care, VA this week held a ribbon-cutting for the 47th clinic it has opened since 2025, saying it is expanding timely, quality care through new clinics, more convenient appointments and modernized facilities. Key contacts include VA's main line at 1-800-MyVA411 (1-800-698-2411), the Veterans Crisis Line at 988 (press 1) or by texting 838255, and homeless Veteran resources at 1-877-424-3838.
Veterans Day began as Armistice Day, became a tribute to Veterans of every generation in 1954, and returned to November 11 in 1978. November 10 also marks the 251st birthday of the U.S. Marine Corps, founded in 1775, which VA saluted in the same guide.
