Annual Halloween Parade

72nd Annual  Halloween Parade

This year's theme is "America's 250 Anniversary"

Thank you for visiting our Halloween parade page and I hope you will be able to support us with a donation or sponsorship.  It is my honor to ask for your support of our seventy second Woburn Halloween Parade to be held on Sunday, October 25. As our first blind President of the Woburn Host Lions Club, I can personally attest how the funds raised through the parade improve the lives of blind children and adults.

For 72 years, the Woburn Halloween Parade has been a staple in our community, bringing joy and fun to thousands of children and their families.  The reach goes beyond Woburn; Burlington, Winchester and the other surrounding communities also place the last Sunday in October on their calendar.  Your gift not only will support our charitable causes, but will also provide you with exposure to tens of thousands of people.

The money raised through the parade allows us to support the following: braille books for blind children, independent living for blind adults and other physical and cognitive disabilities, veteran services, service dogs, breast cancer and many other needs in our community. 

For me, the Woburn Host Lions have given me the joy of baseball for the blind, glasses that read text and describe my surroundings.  These are examples how the club’s generosity can shape lives for the better.  As someone who has benefited from the club’s efforts, I want to help us support as many people like me. 

It is my sincerest hope that you will join us with a sponsorship for the seventy second Woburn Halloween Parade in what is the 250th year of our country.  There is nothing more patriotic than helping our fellow citizens!

Parade Sunday

Mission Statement

The Woburn Host Lions Parade is for the enjoyment of the families and children of Woburn and surrounding communities while collecting funds the charities of the club.

The last Sunday in October is traditionally "Parade Sunday" in the City of Woburn. Over 80,000 people join together along Main Street to cheer the many fine bands, wave to the floats, catch up with old friends and celebrate the true spirit of Halloween. For a small town "Home Coming Day" feeling this is one fall event in New England that you don't want to miss out on.

Dress up your ghosts, goblins, Spidermen and princesses to join us at 1 o'clock, come rain or shine, on Main Street, Woburn. Arrive early to get a curbside view. Parade route starts at Crowne Plaza/Showcase Cinema travelling south on Main St to Woburn Center continuing onto Lake Ave at the Winchester line ending at Horn pond. The parade route is 2.2 miles long and normally takes just about 1.5 hours to walk the route end-to-end.

Please remember that our Lions Club utilizes this parade to raise money for the Massachusetts Lions Eye Research Fund. Your generous donations, large or small, are most welcome.
