2026 Geneva Swedish Days Parade

The 2026 Geneva Swedish Days Parade steps off at 1:00 PM on Sunday, June 28, beginning at the corner of Center Street and Anderson Boulevard. The parade will follow its traditional route—south on Anderson, east on State Street, then south on South Third Street, ending at the Metra train station.
As we celebrate the 76th anniversary of this beloved event—alongside the 250th anniversary of America—we’re hoping to make this year’s parade more vibrant and memorable than ever. We would love for you to be part of it!
Your participation helps keep this cherished community tradition alive—we truly hope you’ll join us!
