Somerville Memorial Day parade this Sunday afternoon

Starts at 1 pm at City Hall, marches down Highland Avenue to Davis Square, Holland Street to Teele Square, and Broadway to the veterans' cemetery on Clarendon Hill.

Full details here, including parking restrictions and street closures. Of special note:
The 2016 parade will feature 21 performing groups, including new bands and performers such as: The Spartans Drum and Bugle Corps from Nashua, NH; The Freedom Trail Band (first LGBT band to perform in the parade); OUTVETS, marching in honor of LGBT Veterans; and the Blues Brothers: Next Generation performing group.

(Cambridge also has a parade, on Monday morning. Nobody seems to ever know about it, and it's sparsely attended.)
