BOSTON — The South Boston St. Patrick’s Day parade has been canceled for a second year in a row due to COVID-19.
The official Twitter account for the parade posted it is canceled for 2021 due to state restrictions that limit outdoor public events to no more than 25 people. Hundreds of people come to Southie each year to participate in and watch the parade.
Due to ongoing state restrictions limiting outdoor public events to 25 people, the 2021 South Boston St. Patrick's Day / Evacuation Day Parade has been canceled. We look forward to finally seeing you all again in 2022.
