The Philadelphia Greek Independence Day Parade will take place on Sunday, April 26, along the Benjamin Franklin Parkway, as part of the annual celebrations organized by the Federation of Hellenic-American Societies of Philadelphia and Greater Delaware Valley.
The parade is scheduled to begin at 2:00 PM, with participants assembling starting at 1:00 PM near 22nd Street and the Parkway. The procession will move toward Logan Circle, where the reviewing stand will be located at 18th Street.
Churches, Greek schools, cultural organizations, and community groups from across the region will take part, carrying banners and Greek flags as they make their way down the Parkway. For many families, the parade remains the central moment of the weekend, bringing together participants and spectators from Pennsylvania, New Jersey, and Delaware.
Organizations interested in participating may register to march or enter a float through the event organizers. The deadline for registration is April 12.
