Hi Mooviters,
🎖️Philadelphia’s Veterans Parade & Festival 2024 is today. The event is a time to thank and celebrate our veterans and includes a parade beginning at noon and a festival in Eakins Oval until 4 pm featuring many local veterans’ groups and businesses.
Getting to the Events
If you’re headed to the parade, SEPTA is a great way to ensure you arrive on time. The parade route has changed this year and will begin at Benjamin Franklin Parkway and 21st Street.Â
If you’ll be going directly to the festival, the Spring Garden St & Art Museum stop on SEPTA bus route 43 is the perfect choice – it’s in walking distance from Eakins Oval.
Road Closures
To facilitate the Veterans Parade, half a mile of the road beginning on 21st Street and extending toward the Philadelphia Museum of Art will be blocked off to traffic, which will impact SEPTA’s bus service until 5 pm. The full list of affected routes is below; for specific details on the detours, please view this map or check service alerts by line in the Moovit App.
