Sunday, July 19th - Roxbury Unity Parade @ Madison High School
Founded by Toy Burton, the first Roxbury Unity Parade stepped off in 2018 as a celebration of Black culture, our excellence, and our contributions to the City of Boston. Since then, the parade has grown into a powerful community tradition that brings together residents, organizations, businesses, performers, schools, and supporters from across the city for a joyful celebration of Roxbury pride, unity, and culture.
The Roxbury Unity Parade travels through the heart of Roxbury, beginning at Madison Park Technocal Vocational High School on Malcolm X Blvd, continuing through Roxbury and Nubian Square, before returning to the starting area.
Once you register, make sure to arrive at Madison Park Technical Vocational High School (75 Malcolm X Blvd, Roxbury, MA 02119) by 11:30am. Parade will step off at 1:00pm.
