Annual BFK Children’s Parade
The BFK Children’s Parade is free celebration of kids in our community where children and their grown‑ups are invited to stroll through downtown Appleton together, showcasing their creativity with themed costumes, props, and non-motorized floats.
The parade kick-offs in Houdini Plaza at 6pm. The celebration continues after the parade with an after party in city park with free activities, entertainment and food trucks. There will also be an award ceremony to celebrate the groups with the most creativity, imagination and confidence!
