The annual Wreaths Across America Family Pass Holder Day will be held at Arlington National Cemetery and the Soldiers' and Airmen's Home National Cemetery. From 8 a.m. to 5 p.m., family pass holders are invited to place a wreath at their loved one’s gravesite.

Members of the general public can take part in National Wreaths Across America Day, beginning at 8 a.m. Volunteers may place wreaths at the base of a veteran’s headstone or columbarium niche to honor their legacy and remember their sacrifice. Registration is not required. However, we recommend that visitors participating in Wreaths Across America at Arlington National Cemetery on Dec. 14 register with WAA to ensure they receive the most up-to-date information about volunteering.
