Memorial Day Weekend in Ocean City Md!

Kick off the season in Ocean City over Memorial Day Weekend — lots of people do, because for many, Memorial Day marks the unofficial start of the summer. Hopefully there’s good weather and you can spend your time outside, enjoying the beach, the Boardwalk, and everything Ocean City has to offer. If a business has been closed over the winter months, you can bet they are open for Memorial Day Weekend! So enjoy the beach, the Boardwalk, the parks, and the pools, and make the most of the Holiday. Here are a few events happening in and around Ocean City for Memorial Day, as well as live entertainment over the holiday weekend. 

Memorial Day Ceremony And Summer Kick-Off

The Town of Ocean City is gearing up for a special ceremony for the 2025 summer season and to pay homage to Memorial Day, honoring the courageous individuals who have served our nation.  To mark the beginning of beach season, the event will feature guest speaker Major General Janeen Birckhead, a powerful three-aircraft flyover of A-10s from the Maryland Air National Guard, patriotic performances by the 229th Maryland Army National Guard Band, a wreath laying, and a tribute to all who have served. You can find more details here.

Rides and Amusements in Ocean City

Memorial Day Weekend marks the beginning of summer in Ocean City, which also means everything should be open for the season! This includes the rides at Trimper Rides on the Boardwalk, the go-karts at Baja Amusement, Pro Track and Grand Prix on Rt 50 in West Ocean City, and mini golf, including the new Nick’s Mini Golf and Rope’s Course on 21st Street, throughout the town. Let the summer begin!

Time to Get Out on the Water

It’s not too early to rent a pontoon boat, or a jet ski and get out on the water for the start of the summer. You can see Ocean City from a different angle when you’re out on the water. Enjoy with friends and family, make a day of it or just have fun for a couple of hours. Set your pace, and go for it! Our favorite places to rent from are Bayside Boat Rentals and Odyssea Watersports. Give them a call and make your reservation, along with some great memories.
