Coronavirus Milford: 2020 St. Patrick’s Day Parade Cancelled
Ongoing coronavirus concerns have resulted in the popular parade being cancelled this year.
MILFORD, CT — Marty Hardiman, Chairman of the Milford St. Patrick’s Day Parade Committee issued the following statement Wednesday concerning the news that the parade will be cancelled.
“Given Governor Ned Lamont’s declared state of public health emergency and with the closure of a private school in Milford due to a possible case of COVID-19, we have decided to cancel the 2020 parade. This decision is being made out of an abundance of caution and with extensive input from local, state, and federal public health officials. This decision will help to ensure that we keep our residents and guests safe and healthy. While this is not the outcome we would have preferred, we look forward to working with all our partners for a successful parade in 2021.”
The parade was scheduled for Sunday, March 14. To sign up for Milford breaking news alerts and more, click here.
