Today's Feast is much the same as it was 90 years ago with lights adorning the street and the smell of sausage in the air. The current Feast still includes a procession of the Madonna through the streets of the North End. Each August since 1911, the Feast has been held in Boston's historic North End, making it the North End's oldest continuously running Italian festival.
