About Veterans Day

Veterans Day is November 11, the anniversary of the 1918 armistice that ended World War I. Unlike most US federal holidays it stays on its date rather than moving to a Monday, so on a Saturday it is observed Friday and on a Sunday it is observed Monday. It coincides with Remembrance Day in the UK and Commonwealth.

Banks, post offices and federal offices close, but schools, stock markets and most businesses stay open. Many restaurants and retailers offer free meals or discounts to veterans and active service members on the day; most require ID and some extend the offer through the weekend.
