Parade Routes and Pool Openings for the Holiday Weekend
Feasterville Trevose, PA · May 23, 2026
The smell of charcoal is already drifting over the fences this morning. It’s the unofficial start of summer, and the neighborhood is waking up to a packed holiday weekend, starting with the big parade on Bustleton Pike.
📰 The Lead
The flags are out and the marching bands are tuned up for the Lower Southampton Memorial Day Parade, which kicks off at 1:00 PM today. This annual tradition draws crowds along Bustleton Pike, starting at Somerton Road and winding down to the Township Building. It’s more than just a spectacle; it’s a moment for the community to pause and honor those who served. If you’re planning to drive through the center of town this afternoon, be prepared for detours. Bustleton Pike will be closed to through traffic starting around 12:30 PM, with side streets likely seeing extra congestion as residents stake out their spots on the curb. The ceremony at the Veterans Memorial immediately following the parade provides a poignant conclusion to the festivities.
