Veterans Day, observed annually on November 11, is a tribute to military Veterans who have served in the U.S. Armed Forces. Norman's annual community event honors and thanks those who have served and provides a space for citizens to display such gratitude and appreciation.

Norman's annual Veterans Day Parade and Veteran's Memorial Ceremony are scheduled for Sunday, November 14, 2021, at 2 p.m. and 3 p.m., respectively.

The parade will begin at 2 p.m. at the OU Stephenson Research Center, 101 David L Boren Blvd. The parade will proceed north on Jenkins Avenue, east on Constitution, and then travel north to the Cleveland County Veterans Memorial. The parade will include a wide variety of unique classic cars and military vehicles. 

The memorial ceremony, sponsored by the Norman Veterans committee, a group of volunteers dedicated to honoring all veterans, will begin at 3 p.m. at Reaves Park, 2501 Jenkins Avenue. Speakers include Brigadier General Ben Robinson, who flew over 250 combat missions with the U.S. Air Force; and Lieutenant Colonel Stephen E. Regan, also a U.S. Airforce veteran, who is now a dedicated volunteer at the Dale K. Graham Veterans Foundation.
