Actors Joe Mantegna and Gary Sinise have signed on to host Sunday's National Memorial Day Concert in Washington, D.C.

There are multiple ceremonies and other events set to take place in the Baton Rouge area and across Louisiana for Memorial Day 2025.

Events this Memorial Day honoring fallen service members include parades, concerts, flag placements and the traveling Vietnam Memorial Wall.

Some parts of the U.S. could see triple-digit temperatures over the weekend, while severe storms threaten other areas, according to forecasters.
