Day Parade and Memorial Services that follow. The parade will be held on Monday, May 29. The lineup will

About the event:
Wood Dale's Memorial Day Parade is a community tradition.
As always, we are expecting a fun-filled family day.
Wood Dale's, Irving Park, and Addison Roads is the location for the parade. Memorial Day brings out a huge crowd to honor those we have lost and to build a strong community.
Candy may be distributed along the route. Please toss candy to the curb or have volunteers walk close to the curb to distribute it.
The parade will step off from Elizabeth Drive and proceed north on Addison Road and Irving Park Road. At Irving Park Road it will then turn east and end just beyond the bridge.
A Memorial Service will be held at Veterans Memorial Park following the parade to honor our servicemen and women.
Shuttle service will cycle to and from the Wood Dale Bowling Alley, 155 W Irving Park Rd, to the parade formation area. Parking at the bowling alley is highly encouraged.
