The National Parade Committee actively seeks out each year’s Parade venue and is always looking for new places and ideas. If your Region would like to see a Parade in your local area, please contact the National Parade Committee Chair. While we cannot promise you a particular year, we can promise that we will take a serious look at venues in your area the next time Parade is headed to your part of the country. The good news is that you don’t have to do any more than that, the Parade Committee will handle everything else!
