Greensboro Commemorates 9/11 with Two Memorial Events Sept 11

Greensboro marks the 25th anniversary of the September 11 attacks with two distinct events on Thursday, Sept 11, 2026, both listed on the Greensboro Convention & Visitors Bureau calendar.

The Greensboro 9/11 Memorial Event is the city's commemoration of the anniversary. A Night to Honor our Heroes runs the same evening as a separate event honoring local heroes. The two programs give residents two ways to observe the anniversary — one centered on remembrance, the other on honoring those recognized at the event.

Both events take place in the Greensboro anchor on Sept 11, ten days after this article's publication date. Details on start times and exact venues are carried on the CVB event listings.
