Ancient & Honorable Artillery Company of Massachusetts
Lafayette Bicentennial Parade
On August 24, 2024, we will honor Lafayette's legacy with a commemorative event: a muster and breakfast at the Ancient & Honorable Artillery Company Armory, a parade to Boston Common, wreath-laying ceremonies, and a review of the troops by General Lafayette. Parade participants will form on Boston Common, where Lafayette and dignitaries will address the crowd and receive a cannon salute. Join us as we pay tribute to Lafayette's return and celebrate the enduring spirit of freedom and friendship. For more information, visit the Itinerary page.
