Parade
An open square west of the cathedral ringed by café terraces, the best spot to admire the church facade and the nightscape.
Parade lies directly in front of St. John's Cathedral. It was once a parade ground and is now the city's most popular outdoor spot, lined with restaurant and bar terraces. From here you can take in the full west facade and towers of the cathedral. In summer the square often hosts concerts, open-air movie screenings, and food festivals; in winter it has Christmas activities and an ice rink. The Parade Theatre on one side is the city's main performance venue. It is a good place to sit down with a beer or coffee after visiting the cathedral.
