Hello parade applicants,
Thanks for your interest in the Asheville Downtown Association's 2019 Holiday Parade, presented by Bojangles! The event will take place on Saturday, Nov. 23 at 11 AM.
Asheville Holiday Parade is a complex event with many moving parts, dozens of staff and volunteers, and more than 100 entries. It only runs smoothly if everyone follows the rules, implements our guidelines and follows direction from organizers. Please consider your neighbors and work toward the best interest of the overall event as you make plans and communicate with your group.
2019 Theme: Peace On Earth
Grand marshal: Madeline Delp, Ms. Wheelchair USA
