Every year, Columbus Citizens Foundation is proud to be the organizer of New York City’s Columbus Day Parade. The event is the world’s largest celebration of Italian-American history and culture. All are welcome to apply for consideration as a marching group. Group registration opens in March 2021. Our 2020 Parade was cancelled due to the Covid-19 pandemic, but on Monday, October 12, 2020, we were thrilled to broadcast the “Italian Heritage & Celebration” 90-minute special on ABC-7. Our special featured appearances from: 2020 Grand Marshal Andrew Cuomo; Dr. Anthony Fauci; Andrea Bocelli; Lidia Bastianich; Kelly Ripa and more!
