Celebrate Memorial Day and honor our United States Armed Forces in Grand Lake, home to one of the best Memorial Day parades in the state. From the shores of the largest natural lake in Colorado, watch veterans, service groups, horses, classic cars, locals and more parade down Grand Avenue. There’s always lots of candy!

The Grand Lake Memorial Day Parade begins promptly at 10:00 a.m. on Memorial Day with plenty of patriotism followed by a touching observance ceremony in the Town Park with live music.

Veterans are provided with complimentary coffee and a continental breakfast at Pancho & Lefty’s, and are treated to a potluck and beverages following the ceremony.

Enjoy kicking off your summer with Grand Lake as we honor our heroes! Be sure to ask Western Riviera about our lodging discounts for veterans.
