August 3rd - 8th
New York City
We are honored to invite you to join us for a momentous occasion — the 90th Annual Catholic War Veterans National Convention, taking place August 3rd through August 8th, 2025, in the heart of New York City.
This year marks nine decades of unwavering fellowship, faith, and patriotic service. We come together not only to reflect on our shared legacy but to celebrate the enduring spirit that unites us — as veterans, Catholics, and Americans. From solemn moments of remembrance to joyful gatherings with old friends and new, this convention promises to be a meaningful and memorable experience for all.
Set against the vibrant backdrop of New York — the birthplace of our organization — this convention is more than a meeting. It’s a homecoming.
We look forward to welcoming you to this special celebration of honor, heritage, and hope.
