Downtown Gathers at 11 AM to Honor Veterans
Fishers, IN · November 11, 2026
Rain gear is non-negotiable today, but the drop in temperatures won't stop the community from gathering downtown this morning.
The Lead
Fishers joins communities nationwide today in recognizing the service and sacrifice of military service members at the city's annual Veterans Day Ceremony, beginning at 11:00 AM inside the Theater at Fishers Municipal Center. Co-hosted by the city and the Fishers Armed Services Commission, the gathering is free and open to all residents, with a live broadcast streamed on the city's YouTube channel for those unable to attend in person.
Retired U.S. Army Major General Timothy Winslow, who currently serves as executive director of Indiana War Memorials and assistant director of the Indiana Department of Veterans Affairs, delivers this year's keynote address. Attendees will also hear live patriotic selections from the White River Brass Troupe and witness a special pinning presentation honoring local veterans in attendance.
The ceremony anchors a broader municipal effort that includes light-pole banner tributes surrounding Central Green and the Nickel Plate District Amphitheater.
