New Jersey always hosts a number of Memorial Day events throughout the state. Considering the fact that Memorial Day takes place on the last Monday of May each year, events typically take place the weekend prior; hence the list of weekend events as opposed to strictly day-of events.
In any case, we’ve rounded up some of our top picks for Memorial Day Weekend events. From all of us at Best of NJ, we wish you a Happy Memorial Day!
2020 Update: Due to the COVID-19 Crisis, Best of NJ will not be creating a holiday calendar this year. We’ll be back in 2021 with holiday weekend events. For now, we hope everyone is staying safe and healthy; we encourage all our readers to practice safe social distancing and follow the stay-at-home orders.
