Astronaut and Navy veteran Suni Williams will lead the 107th annual commemoration as Grand Marshal.

The Veterans Day procession is scheduled to step off at 12:30 p.m. on November 11, traveling north from 26th Street to 45th Street along Fifth Avenue. That gives spectators a defined Midtown route for planning where to watch.

NASA astronaut Sunita “Suni” Williams is this year’s Grand Marshal. Fellow Navy veteran Vicki Bello, who manages community and veterans programs for the Theatre Development Fund, serves as Honorary Marshal.

Before the march, a wreath-laying ceremony begins at 10:55 a.m. in Madison Square Park. The gathering is at Fifth Avenue between East 23rd and East 24th streets.
