National Veterans Parade Benefit Gala to Honor America’s Heroes and Raise Funds for Veteran Service Organizations

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Washington D.C. — 11.17.2025


ree

The National Veterans Parade Foundation is proud to announce the 2026 Benefit Gala, scheduled for Thursday, February 12, 2026, at the elegant Mar‑a‑Lago Club (1100 S. Ocean Blvd., Palm Beach, FL 33480).  

This distinguished event will raise essential funds to support the production of the annual National Veterans Parade in Washington, D.C., and to provide direct assistance to veteran service organizations.


About the Gala


The Benefit Gala will include:

• A welcome pool-side reception beginning at 6:00 PM EST.  

• A five-course plated dinner, open bar, and entertainment, starting at approximately 7:30 PM.  

• Black-tie preferred attire, with VIP and sponsorship packages available for those wishing to support at higher levels.  


Distinguished Guests & Mission


The gala will feature keynote remarks from Lieutenant General Michael T. Flynn (U.S. Army, Retired) — a decorated veteran and the Honorary Grand Marshal of the 2025 National Veterans Parade.  

The mission of the Foundation is to honour the solemn oath taken by our nation’s veterans to “Preserve and Protect the Constitution,” and to promote and support the vital work of veteran service organizations.  


Impact & Support


All proceeds from the Gala will go toward covering operational costs of the parade (including coordination with the National Park Service, the District of Columbia, and other essential vendors). Any funds raised beyond that will be allocated directly to veteran service organizations, with a special focus on veteran homelessness and community reintegration programs.  

Sponsors have the opportunity to receive prominent recognition (from signage on the parade route to naming benefits at the gala) and align their brand with a powerful patriotic cause.  


Join Us


We invite civic leaders, corporate partners, philanthropic organizations, and all who share our commitment to honor those who have served to join us for this night of recognition and support. Tickets and sponsorship information are available online at the event website.
