ROAD CLOSURES AND PARKING FOR SEPTEMBER 27, 2026 🚧 ROAD CLOSURES AND PARKING FOR SEPTEMBER 27, 2026 🚧

Please plan ahead for Sunday, September 27, as Allston-Brighton welcomes two great community traditions — the Brian Honan 5K Road Race and the Allston-Brighton Parade!

🏃 BRIAN HONAN 5K ROAD RACE
Start Time: 12:00 PM
The race will take place immediately before the parade and is expected to finish ahead of the parade start.

🎉 ALLSTON-BRIGHTON PARADE
1:00 PM – 2:30 PM

Both events will impact traffic and parking throughout the neighborhood, so residents, businesses and visitors should plan accordingly.

🚨 IMPORTANT PARKING NOTICE
All parked vehicles must be removed from Cambridge Street and Washington Street BEFORE 7:45 AM on Sunday, September 27.

TOWING WILL BEGIN AT 7:45 AM.

Additional parking restrictions will be in place along the event routes, including the westbound lanes of Brighton Avenue from Packard’s Corner to Union Square, Allston.

🚧 STREETS IMPACTED INCLUDE:
• Westbound lanes of Brighton Avenue
• Cambridge Street from Jackson Mann Community Center to BMC
• Washington Street to Oak Square YMCA

Please pay close attention to all temporary No Parking signs posted along the routes and move vehicles ahead of time.

Road closures related to the parade are expected from approximately 11:45 AM–3:00 PM, although parking restrictions, towing and event preparations will begin much earlier in the morning.

Please help us spread the word, especially to neighbors and businesses along Cambridge Street, Washington Street and Brighton Avenue.

Plan ahead. Move your car. Come out and enjoy a great day in Allston-Brighton! 🧡

Allston Brighton Youth Coalition Free open house Allston Brighton Youth Coalition

Free open house for teens to hear about the work of the AB Youth Coalition.

The Allston Brighton Youth Coalition works to engage, support, and empower young people in Allston-Brighton, with a strong emphasis on healthy decision-making, substance-use prevention, leadership, and youth voice. Its work grew from the Allston Brighton Substance Abuse Task Force’s community-based prevention efforts, bringing youth together with families, schools, service providers, and neighborhood partners to address issues affecting young people. 

They have slots open for their program and teens earn stipends for their efforts and participation. They are doing some amazing things!
