What to Expect at Army’s 250th Celebration and Military Parade

  • The U.S. Army will hold its 250th anniversary celebration and military parade on June 14, 2025, in Washington, D.C., coinciding with President Donald Trump's birthday.
  • The event stems from a long-planned Army festival, initiated before Trump's presidency, but the addition of a parade reflects his expressed desire for military displays.
  • The celebration will include a festival with equipment displays, military demonstrations, a parade featuring more than 6,700 troops, around 150 vehicles, and over 50 aircraft flying overhead.
  • Officials estimate the cost at $25 million to $45 million, noting the parade added several million dollars more, and Representative Steve Cohen introduced a bill opposing public funds used for militaristic displays for personal glorification.
  • The event may draw up to 200,000 attendees and includes ceremonies such as enlistments presided over by Trump, while critics describe the parade as wasteful and an ego-driven display.
