How to Participate in The Great Pumpkin Parade

The parade line forms at 11 am at Kelly/Church and the parade starts at 12 noon. There is NO pre-registration process (except for commercial entries). You/your group can simply show up and check in with parade organizers who will be directing everything in the parade line formation area. When you arrive, you will see parade officials with walkie-talkies – simply introduce yourself/your group and you will be assigned a place in the parade line.

Organizers have the right to deny any entry from participating and space is not guaranteed.

Please note: Animals are not allowed in the parade, throwing or tossing items to the crowd is not allowed, and the festival has the right to deny unregistered commercial entries and entries deemed to have unacceptable subject matter.

The parade line forms on Church Street between Kelly Avenue and Correas Street. Get directions.
