Join us for the 88th Pulaski Day Parade!
The 88th Annual Pulaski Day Parade will take place on September 12, 2026 at 11:30am in Depew between the Municipal Building and Veterans Park.
Line up for the parade will begin at 10:30am at the Depew Municipal Building.
Join us in Veterans Park after the parade for music, food, basket raffle, and craft vendors until 5pm.
This year the parade will include cultural and community leaders who have received the General Pulaski Association and Erie County 250 Congressional Award in Cultural Excellence. All awardees will wear a distinctive rosette and ribbon to denote their honor.
During the parade, redemption tickets will be handed out for a free mug (1 per person) that will be given out in the basket raffle tent in the park.
The annual Pulaski Day Parade is one of the most historic annual cultural parades in the United States. Previous Grand Marshals of our parade included U.S. President John F. Kennedy and U.S. VP Nelson Rockefeller.
Bring your whole family and be a part of history. Continue the tradition that has lasted generations!
