Inside This Article

    Veterans Day is Tuesday, November 11, this year. Thank you for your service to all who served or who are still serving.

    This list of Veterans Day deals is part of the most comprehensive list you’ll find anywhere on the internet. It’s curated by a team each year that works to verify deals and free meals. We feature national chain stores and restaurants, regional businesses, and, in some cases, local ones. These deals include free meals or discounted food, free or discounted hotels, haircuts, car washes, and many more deals specifically for Veterans, active-duty servicemembers, reservists, and members of the National Guard.

    We are continued to update this list as more companies announce deals closer to November 11th. You may see some that say “2024,” but that’s because the company hasn’t announced it for this year yet. (I left it in because it’s usually a similar type of deal, so I want you to be aware of it!)

    But, that said, we want to bring you the most up-to-date discounts, so be sure to check back often to see if anything has changed. To help you make the most of these discounts, we even offer day planners that highlight suggestions to maximize the deals available to you.

    Note: Restaurant discounts are often the most popular. Check out our updated list of 2025 Veterans Day Free Meals here.
