Entry is free, as is watching the Parade. We rely on donations and sponsors to produce the parade. Donors can be sponsors at several levels. The Sponsor page (javascript:void(0))has all the sponsor information. If you prefer to make a monetary donation, you can Donate here.(javascript:void(0))

VISITOR PARKING is on a “first-come, first-serve” basis on the side streets around the parade route, so please come early and allow ample time to navigate crowds. To find out the “side streets” where you can park and weave your way towards the parade, please look at the route closure map. It will tell you where the parade is, what streets close at what times and lists the side streets for you to access to find parking and then make your way into the parade route. The route map also shows where speaker towers are located, if you’d like to sit nearby and hear entries announced as they march by.

It starts at 11 a.m. The exact time may vary depending on the final number of parade entries, but it typically lasts for two hours, and ends around 1:00 p.m. Please allow ample time before and after for parking, and/or walking to the location you’d prefer to view the parade.
