For more than 60 years, Monroeville has presented one of the largest Independence Day parades in the eastern suburbs. The event started at the Miracle Mile, traveled down William Penn Highway to Mall Boulevard and continued to the grandstand at Macy’s parking lot. Participating units from around the community included floats, marching groups, dance teams, a salute to military veterans and units from local fire departments and first responders. The Gateway Marching Band leads the parade down Mall Boulevard.
