Traditions Mean More at The War Memorial!
Gather around the fire, where stockings are hung with care, and the warmth of the season invokes familiar and fond memories.
The War Memorial is all about tradition. Many metro-Detroit families have made our holiday events part of their yearly celebrations, and we would love if you did too! The holidays in southeast Michigan are a truly magical time, and there is no better setting to celebrate than the historic War Memorial. Below you will find more information about these upcoming festive occasions including a fan-favorite Breakfast with Santa!
Since 1949, The War Memorial has been a hub for the community, a place for everyone from everywhere, a home away from home. Come join us this holiday season and create memories that will last a lifetime!
