Ukrainian Independence Day Parade 2022

Come and celebrate Ukraine with us at the 11-th Ukrainian Independence Day Parade and Festival in the village of Parma, Ohio. The parade will showcase scores of marching units, including our own Ukrainian Cultural Association of Ohio (UCAO). We will have a blue-and-yellow decorated truck with kids riding and proudly flying flags and baloons. We will gladly join ranks with organizations from  Athens, Dayton, Troy, and other Ukrainians from Central Ohio.

This year marks the 31st Anniversary of Ukraine’s Independence. We invite you to join this important commemoration, which includes a parade, a brief program, and festivities. The commemoration is of particular significance this year as Ukraine resists the brutal, unjustified, and unprovoked war by the Russian Federation.

WHEN: August 27, 2022 10am (groups gather at State Road and Grantwood).                                                                                                                                               
WHERE: The parade proceeds a distance of 1 mile north on State Road, just north of Grantwood Drive and ends at the Ukrainian Heritage Park

WHY:  Wear your vyshyvanky and let blue and yellow colors fly throughout the Village! We Stand with Ukraine!
