Boston Columbus Day Parade
Boston's huge Columbus Day Parade features an eclectic mix of marching brass bands, military units and Colonial militias, Italian-Boston organizations, Duck Boat floats, politicians, other entertainers, and even vintage autos. It occurs on the Sunday before Columbus Day. Check the Boston Events in October page for the exact date, time, and location.
The parade celebrates Boston's Italian heritage, Christopher Columbus's expeditions to the Americas, and the commitment of Massachusetts military units to American freedom.
In odd-numbered years (2013, 2015), the parade kicks off in Boston and winds through the North End's narrow streets - Atlantic Ave, Hanover Street, Endicott. In even-numbered years (2014, 2016), the parade marches down Bennington Street in East Boston, starting at the Dom Savio Athletic Field
