Monday’s Holiday Service Schedule and Parade Route Closures

Feasterville Trevose, PA · May 25, 2026

The coffee is brewing a little earlier today as the flags go up along Bustleton Pike. It is a quiet start to the morning, but the silence will not last long once the marching bands and fire trucks begin to line up for the neighborhood's biggest annual tradition.

📰 The Lead

Today marks the return of the Lower Southampton Memorial Day Parade, a tradition that transforms the local landscape into a sea of red, white, and blue. The procession is scheduled to step off at 9:00 AM from the Somerton United Methodist Church, heading north along Bustleton Pike. This year’s lineup includes several local veterans' organizations, the Neshaminy High School marching band, and community scouts.

The event concludes at the Township Building with a solemn wreath-laying ceremony at the Veterans’ Memorial around 11:00 AM. For those planning to attend, the best viewing spots are usually claimed by 8:30 AM along the sidewalk stretches near the shopping centers. While the atmosphere is celebratory, the closing ceremony remains a focused moment of reflection for the families of local service members. Expect significant traffic diversions in the center of town until early afternoon.
