Boston, MA 02109

The Fisherman's Feast is Boston's oldest continuous Italian festival, celebrating its long-standing tradition since 1910 in the North End neighborhood. Rooted in the devotion of Sicilian fishermen to the Madonna del Soccorso, the celebration features a variety of food vendors, live entertainment, and traditional parades, culminating in the Flight of the Angel on Sunday night.

This annual event not only honors the heritage of the original immigrant fishermen but also serves as a gathering point for the community, showcasing delectable Italian dishes and lively cultural performances. Hosted over four days in August, the festival invites everyone to partake in its historic and festive atmosphere.
