Our parade is a family oriented event designed for everyone's enjoyment and participation. Although we will receive some funding for bands from the Accommodation Tax Funds, The success of the parade is dependent upon the Island Business and individual participation, whether it be as a marching unit or a float.
Spectators, in excess of 18,000 people, are always delighted with the antics of clowns, marching bands, entertaining Shiners', beautiful floats, and all the marching units and dignitaries.
Our parade has been recognized as one of the Top 20 Tourism Events in the Southeast for the month of March.
Be a part of our parade, gather your group, and
enter a float either
one of your own making or a commercial float from our
supplier. All floats compete for awards, of which there are five.
