Boston's St Patricks Day Parade can't be missed! It's held in Boston's Southie neighborhood.
Teresa, when and where is Boston's Parade held, asked McAveler?
It's in mid March. The Parade is held in South Boston or what we call "Southie", the city's most Irish neighborhood.
What Time Does the Parade Begin?
The Parade usually begins around 1 p.m. and runs for about three hours.
How Many People Attend the Parade?
An estimated 600,000 people attend the Parade in Boston each year. You'll need to arrive early to stake out a viewing spot along the parade route.
Where is the Best Place to Watch the Parade?
The parade begins at the Broadway MBTA station and ends at Andrew Square. Your best bet for viewing the parade is to stake out a spot anywhere along Broadway.
What Will We See?
Boston's Parade features and other bands from Ireland, Boston, and across the United States, plus colorful floats, and more. There are fireworks later. But best of all, I just like to watch the people!
Can people Get to the Parade Without Having to Drive and Park?
Yes--Take "The T," Boston's subway.You'll want to take the Red Line to either the Broadway "T" station or the Andrew "T" station.
Thank you Teresa. We will definitely come back next March to see the parade in person!
