Each November, the city of Riverside comes together to honor the men and women who have served our country with the Riverside Veterans Parade and Expo (formerly the "A Salute to Veterans Parade and Expo"), one of the largest in Southern California and a moving tribute to the courage, sacrifice, and service of our veterans.

This year’s parade takes place on Saturday, November 8th, and it will once again bring together veterans, active-duty service members, military families, schools, bands, and community organizations to celebrate and say ‘thank you’ to those who have worn the uniform.

Erik Perry, Chair of the event, and Vice Chair Josh Felegy, discuss how the community can get involved.
