When to book
Aim to ask by Monday, March 22, 2027
Memorial Day weekend is one of the first big summer weekends, and pool openings and graduations land on it too. Two to three months ahead is not too early.
A suggestion based on roughly 10 weeks of notice, not a deadline. Nothing is booked until you confirm.
Memorial Day
A food truck for Memorial Day.
Memorial Day falls on Monday, May 31, 2027. The region is home to Arlington National Cemetery and many local ceremonies, and the day starts with remembrance for a lot of families. The afternoon often turns into the first big cookout of the summer.
Federal offices close, so agencies and contractors that want to mark the start of summer usually hold a picnic the Thursday or Friday before. Many community pools open that weekend too, and a truck at the pool gate on opening day is a simple way to fill the deck.
Planning tips
- Memorial Day weekend is popular; settle the date before the end of March if you can.
- Plan shade and cold water, because late May can be hot.
- If your event follows a ceremony, give us the end time so service starts right after.
