Parade for the 250th anniversary of the US Army/ Details from the June 14 ceremony in Washington

On June 14, 2025, the U.S. Army will hold a military parade to commemorate its 250th anniversary. The date chosen for the parade coincides with President Trump's 79th birthday and will mark the largest military parade in a generation. The last major parade was in 1991 to celebrate the U.S. victory in Operation Desert Storm.

The parade begins at 6:00 PM and will end at 9:30 PM, with fireworks to follow.

The parade, which is expected to cost up to $45 million, has long been an idea of ??President Trump. It will feature military flyovers, including more than 150 helicopters (64 Apaches, 60 Black Hawks and 47 Chinooks). Starting near the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia, the parade will proceed across the Memorial Bridge, circle the Lincoln Memorial and continue along Constitution Avenue NW between 15th and 23rd Streets.

Approximately 6,600 soldiers and 150 military vehicles (including M1A1 Abrams tanks, Strykers and Paladin artillery) will participate. President Trump will hold a "re-enlistment ceremony" for 250 soldiers. /CNA
