The City of Woburn's annual Veterans Day parade and ceremony is Wednesday, November 11th, 2026, on Woburn Common. Mayor Michael P. Concannon is hosting with the United Veterans Council and the Department of Veteran's Services.
Veterans Services says units muster at 10:00 a.m. at Main and Cross Street (Bill and Bob's, South End), with a call to order at 10:15 a.m. and step-off at 10:30 a.m. toward the Common. The ceremony on the Common starts at 11:00 a.m.
A city traffic notice posted November 7th, 2026, later than that invitation, says the parade forms at 10:15 a.m. on Main Street (Route 38) at Eaton Avenue and proceeds south to Woburn Center, with the ceremony ending around noon. If the two notices disagree, use the later traffic notice for the street plan.
During the ceremony, traffic through Woburn Square is diverted: southbound Main at Salem Street (buses left on Salem, right on Bow, right on Montvale back to Route 38); northbound Main at Montvale (buses left on Bow, left on Salem back to Route 38); eastbound Pleasant Street at Arlington Road (Arlington Road, Warren Avenue, or North Warren Avenue); southbound Winn Street at Harrison Avenue onto Harrison; and westbound Montvale at Main, sent south.
City Hall and administrative offices are closed Wednesday. Woburn Public Schools are closed.
Tuesday, November 10th, 2026 at 5:30 p.m., the 251st Marine Corps Birthday Recognition is at the Irish American. All veterans, any branch, may bring a guest.
Questions on the street closures go to Sgt. Hunt at 781-932-4510 ext. 4825 or ihunt@woburnpd.com. The invitation is from Veterans Director Robert Davis and United Veterans Council Commander George Poole. The traffic plan is posted at https://woburnma.gov/news/2026/11/veterans-day-road-closures/.
