Memorial Day Banners

Choose one of our ready-made Memorial Day banner designs, or create your own for a ceremony, a parade, a veterans’ organization, or your home. Memorial Day honors the men and women who died while serving in the U.S. military, and a respectful banner helps a community remember them together. Every banner is printed in full color on 13 oz matte vinyl for indoor and outdoor use.

Ready-made designs come in 2x6, 3x9, 4x12, and 5x15. Want your own wording, photos, or logo? Design it online or upload your own design, in any of our 200+ sizes.

Popular Uses for Memorial Day Banners

• Veterans’ organizations: posts, halls, and fundraising events
• Schools: remembrance assemblies and displays
• Home and business: porches, fences, and storefronts, plus holiday hours

Memorial Day Banner Wording Ideas

• Remembrance: “Remembering Our Fallen Heroes,” “Honor and Remember,” “In Memory of Those Who Gave All”

• Personal: “In Loving Memory of SGT John Smith,” “Forever in Our Hearts”
• Business: “Closed Memorial Day: Honoring Those Who Served”

Tips for Designing Your Own Memorial Day Banner

• Keep the tone respectful. Memorial Day is a day of remembrance, so a simple message often says the most.
• Red, white, and blue work well; navy and white feel more formal for ceremonies.
• Size the text for the distance. Each size page shows how far its headline can be read.
• Adding a photo of a loved one? Use the original, full-size photo so it prints sharply.

When to Order Memorial Day Banners

• Ceremonies and parades: order a few weeks ahead, especially if you want a design proof.
• Everyone: order before mid-May; Memorial Day is the last Monday in May, and carriers get busy before the holiday weekend.
