Boston is home to one of the country’s largest Irish enclaves. The parade typically draws about 1 million people.
Last year the parade returned after a two-year hiatus during the pandemic. Parade organizers decided during the omicron surge to march, but shorten the route, excluding Dorchester Heights. Attendees said they were thankful for a 60-degree day.
The parade is hosted by the South Boston Allied War Veterans Council. This year's chief marshal was Coleman Nee, a veteran, CEO of Triangle, Inc., a nonprofit that helps people with disabilities, and a former state secretary of veterans' services.
