Tomorrow expect to see several blimps flying high over Boston!

An official source tells us that the Hood Blimp will be joined by the DirectTV and MetLife Snoopy blimps for a historic flight over the streets of Boston Wednesday from 5 to 6 p.m. This event will mark the first-ever blimp parade in the Hub.

You can catch a glimpse of of the Blimp Parade as it travels over Fenway Park, Faneuil Hall, Boston Common and other landmarks around town. A source notes that a group of three blimps hasn’t flown over any major metro area since 2012.
