Mexican Flag Raising

Join the City of Boston in celebrating Mexico's Independence Day with a special flag-raising ceremony at City Hall Plaza. This event honors Mexico's rich cultural heritage and its vibrant community here in Boston.

Mexico’s Independence Day, celebrated on September 16th, commemorates the country’s fight for independence from Spain in 1810. The day is marked by festivities across the globe, and we are proud to join in recognizing the contributions of the Mexican community to Boston's diverse cultural fabric.

The event will feature remarks from city officials, community leaders, and representatives from the Mexican Consulate, followed by the ceremonial raising of the Mexican flag. We invite residents and visitors to come together to celebrate this important day and reflect on the shared values of freedom, unity, and cultural pride.
