City of Quincy Memorial Day Parade and Ceremony

The City of Quincy will host its annual Memorial Day Parade and Ceremony on Monday, May 25, honoring the brave men and women who have served and sacrificed for our country. The procession will begin at Quincy Avenue and proceed to Hancock Street, pausing at United First Parish Church for a wreath-laying ceremony. The parade will then continue along Coddington Street, cross Southern Artery to Sea Street, and conclude at Mount Wollaston Cemetery, where a commemorative ceremony featuring local officials, veterans, and community members will be held in remembrance of those who gave their lives in service to the nation.

City of Quincy's 75th Annual Flag Day Parade

This year’s parade will step off at 7 p.m. at the corner of Hancock Street and Coddington St. in Quincy Center and head north along Hancock Street, turning onto Merrymount Parkway and wrapping up at Vietnam Veterans Drive and Adams Field. A flag-raising ceremony and musical performance at Pageant Field will follow the completion of the parade. The night will culminate with fireworks over Black’s Creek at approximately 9:00 PM. The parade will feature floats celebrating America 250, specialty units, public safety and veterans’ color guards, a fleet of classic cars, and over 1,000 flag-waving youngsters. This year’s parade marks the 75th anniversary of the parade that carries on the tradition of the Koch Club. Adding to the parade excitement, former Richard J. and Simone N Koch Youth Service Award winners will return to join in this commemorative year. Bands performing include the Quincy/North Quincy Marching Band, Crusaders Senior Corp., North Star Alumni Drum and Bugle, 7th Regiment Drum and Bugle, Conn Hurricanes Drum and Bugle, Branches Steel Band, New Magnolia Jazz Band and the Conn Alumni Drum and Bugle.
