NEW for the 2026 Holyoke St. Patrick’s Parade — Sensory Friendly Area

The St. Patrick’s Committee of Holyoke is proud to introduce a Sensory Friendly section along the 2026 parade route — designed to provide a quieter, lower-stimulus experience for those who prefer it.

📍 Location: Appleton Street from Elm Street through Maple Street
(Wind-down begins at Walnut Street)

What to expect in this two-block area:
• No sirens, horns, or revving engines
• No flashing or emergency lights
• String instruments only (no percussion or brass)

Sensory Friendly spaces help reduce loud noise and visual stimulation, creating a more comfortable experience for individuals with sensory sensitivities.

✅ No sign-up or registration required — this area is open to everyone who prefers a calmer parade experience.

🗺️ A parade map and signage will clearly mark the Sensory Friendly Area so spectators can plan ahead.

Because the parade should be welcoming for all. ☘️

Thank you for your support Miracle League of Western Ma and Magic for Maddie
