Bring your lawn chairs and the entire family and take a seat along the parade route to experience a visual and musical extravaganza celebrating our nation. This year’s parade begins with a traveling dance production set to the music of a special song written by the parade producer titled “America My Home Sweet Home“! Get ready to clap your hands and dance along!
The parade will feature a diverse mix of floats, entertainers, marching musical groups, and more. For the first time ever, the World Champion Reading Buccaneers Drum and Bugle Corps from Reading, PA will canvas the parade route with amazing music and precision, along with the Corotegas Latin Marching Band, all the way from Honduras!
This year’s parade will be the debut of the first float set for the 2026 parade celebrating America’s 250th Birthday, with special features nodding to our country’s birth and its roots right here in the city of brotherly love.
The parade begins at 5th and Chestnut Streets and travels in front of Independence Hall in the exact steps of our founding fathers, and then turns right onto 6th Street, and then left onto Market Street, ending at Arch and Broad Streets.
