The City of Culver City invites the community to come together in recognition of Veterans Day 2026 and honor the men and women who have served our country.

On Monday, the Culver City City Council proclaimed November 11, 2026, as Veterans Day, recognizing the courage, service, and sacrifice of veterans who have served in the United States Armed Forces during times of conflict and peace.

Residents are encouraged to continue that recognition this week by attending Culver City’s Veterans Day Ceremony, visiting the Field of Valor, and honoring a veteran or first responder through a flag sponsorship.

A Time to Remember and Give Thanks

Veterans Day traces its roots to Armistice Day in 1918, marking the end of World War I. In 1954, Congress established Veterans Day to honor all veterans of the Armed Forces.

For generations, Culver City residents have served in the U.S. military during times of war and peace. Their service and sacrifice have contributed to the freedoms and well-being we share today.

As we observe Veterans Day, the City encourages residents to pause, remember those who served, honor those we have lost or who remain missing in action, and continue supporting those serving in the United States Armed Forces today.

We hope you will join us this Saturday as Culver City comes together in gratitude and remembrance. 

City Hall is open.
