annual quincy flag day parade  celebration photoThe City of Quincy will celebrate the 72nd Annual Flag Day Parade & Fireworks on Saturday, June 10th beginning at 7:00 p.m.

Each year on the Saturday closest to Flag Day (June 14th), the City of Quincy pays tribute to Old Glory with the Quincy Flag Day Parade & Celebration.

The 1.2 mile parade begins at the intersection of Coddington and Hancock Streets and proceeds north on Hancock Street to Merrymount Parkway, disbanding at Pageant Field.

The parade steps off at 7:00 p.m. at the intersection of Coddington Street & Washington Street. It will head north up Hancock St. and turn into Merrymount Park and wrap up at Adams Field.

One of the longest-running Flag Day Parade in the country will again feature bands, floats, color guards, specialty units, and hundreds of flag-waving youngsters.

The Flag-raising ceremony will take place at 8:00 p.m. at Pageant Field.

The Fireworks display will begin at approx. 9:00 p.m. over Black’s Creek.

The celebration portion of the evening held at Pageant Field following the parade consists of a flag raising of an impressive 30' x 60' version of Old Glory, a fly-over, a patriotic medley, presentation of awards to the parade grand marshal and the recipient of the Richard J. Koch Youth Service award capped off by a dazzling 30 minute fireworks display over Black's Creek.

The parade includes Marching bands, drum and bugle corps, military bands, color guards, fancy cars and antique vehicles - this parade's got it all!

And let's not forget the flag - thousands of them, being waved by the marching youngsters.

A can't miss Quincy tradition, this is the longest running Flag Day parade in the country!
