About the event
Juneteenth commemorates the emancipation of enslaved African Americans in the United States and is a blend of the two words "June" and "nineteenth." To celebrate the upcoming holiday, there will be a Juneteenth parade in Covington on Saturday, June 15, 2024.
Presented by the Newton County Historical Committee on Black Preservation, the parade will start at 10 a.m. and travel from Legion Field through the Square. Join us in celebrating Juneteenth in Covington and the freedom it represents...a jubilant, joyous, triumphal occasion!
