Memorial Day Parade

Wilmington’s world-famous Parade will step off from the Market Basket parking lot at 10:00 am sharp on Monday May 31, 2021. The youth groups will form at the old Walgreens parking lot to allow more room for social distancing and will be placed in the parade by a parade official.

The bands, Honor Guards, and all the adult groups will meet at the Market Basket parking lot. The parade will head down Main St, turn left down Rt. 62 and proceed to the Wildwood cemetery. The youth groups will turn right onto Adams St. and march into the High School parking lot for their parents to pick them up. We are encouraging people to spread out along the parade route and collect their children at any point along the route. Due to social distancing requirements, we will not be serving hot dogs this year. We would like to thank the Lions Club and Knights of Columbus for their help with the hot dogs in the past.
