Memorial Banner Program 2026
Our annual program that recognizes veterans in the community.
The banners feature a loved one’s name and other information on a remembrance-themed design. The banners are displayed along Esquimalt Road, Craigflower Road and near CFB Esquimalt in late October. They are on display until just before the winter holiday season then stored until the following year.
The banners contain the name of deceased service personnel and the conflict they served in. All banners have the same poppy motif. In order to participate in this program, individuals must have served with the Armed Forces of Canada or as a Canadian citizen in an allied nation’s armed forces.
Banners are purchased by a veteran's loved one. The banners are produced locally and the price is set on a cost-recovery basis. Banners are mounted for 3 years after which the banner will be given to the purchaser.
