Chicago's 74th Columbus Day Parade Marches Down Dearborn Street in the Loop; Expect Street Closures

Schools, government offices, libraries, and the post office are closed today.

Expect street closures and traffic congestion along the route, according to Loop Chicago.

The grand marshals are Lou Gramm, Tony Danza, and Cristiana Dell’Anna, and Campania, Italy, is the region of honor.

The parade runs south on Dearborn Street from Wacker Drive to Van Buren Street. Because of construction, it’s temporarily using Dearborn instead of the usual State Street route.

Opening ceremonies begin at 11:30 a.m. at Dearborn Street and Wacker Drive, and the parade steps off at noon.

The day begins with a 9 a.m. Mass at the Shrine of Our Lady of Pompeii, followed by a wreath laying at Arrigo Park.

Chicago’s 74th annual Columbus Day Parade is today in the Loop, organized by the Joint Civic Committee of Italian Americans, which has held the parade since 1952.
