Celebrate solidarity, the union way!
The SAG-AFTRA Chicago Local is proud to partner with The Chicago Federation of Labor in the parade.
When: 11 a.m., Saturday, Sept. 1
Where: The two-mile route begins at E. 112 Street on Ewing Avenue, near Eggers Grove, and ends at Calumet Park.
The Southeast Side Labor Day Parade is a very old tradition honoring labor unions and communities of working-class families that are the foundation of the United States. Parade participants not only consist of unions, but also businesses, nonprofits and schools.
