Boston St Patrick’s Day Parade
The Annual St. Patrick’s Day Parade
The annual South Boston St. Patrick’s Day/ Evacuation Day Parade returns on Sunday, March 19, 2023 at 1:00 pm! The parade begins at Andrew Square and ends at the Broadway ‘T’ Station, South Boston. We suggest grabbing a spot anywhere along Broadway to watch the parade!
Boston St Patrick’s Day Parade Route:
Starts at Andrew Square up Dorchester Street, right onto Telegraph Street, left around Thomas Park down East 6th Street, left onto K Street, right onto East 4th Street, left on P Street then left onto East Broadway to West Broadway end at Broadway Station.
Where to Watch the Parade:
Depending on the kind of experience you want, obviously. Broadway, especially between Broadway Station and L Street, is a terrific spot to be if you want to see the parade from one of the many eateries along the route or if you want to watch it with the crowd. Great options for seeing the parade from locations away from Broadway include Medal of Honor Park, Thomas Park, and other nearby parks if you want to avoid the throng.
The South Boston Allied War Veterans Council organizes the parade.
