251st Marine Corps Birthday Ball

Join the Marine Corps League Sgt. Byron W. Norwood Detachment 1022 for the 251st Marine Corps Birthday Ball on November 14, 2026, at the United Heritage Center at the Dell Diamond in Round Rock, Texas.

For 251 years, the United States Marine Corps has upheld a legacy of honor, courage, and commitment. The Marine Corps Birthday Ball is one of the nation's longest-standing military traditions, bringing together Marines, veterans, military families, and community supporters to celebrate the service and sacrifice of generations of Marines.

This elegant evening will feature the Presentation of Colors, the reading of the Marine Corps Birthday Message, the time-honored ceremonial cake cutting, dinner, dancing, and fellowship. Guests will have the opportunity to connect with Marines from multiple generations, community leaders, veterans from all branches of service, and supporters of our military community.

The event is open to the public, making it a unique opportunity for those who have never attended a Marine Corps Birthday Ball to experience this historic tradition firsthand. Whether you are a Marine, veteran, family member, friend, or simply someone who wishes to honor the men and women who have served our nation, you are welcome to attend.

Hosted by the Marine Corps League Sgt. Byron W. Norwood Detachment 1022, this celebration also highlights the organization's ongoing commitment to veterans, military families, youth programs, and community service throughout Williamson County and Central Texas.
