You’re invited to be a part of the 16th annual BFK Children’s Parade, presented by ThedaCare!

During the parade, kids and their grown-ups stroll through downtown Appleton in themed costumes and non-motorized floats. Families are encouraged to brainstorm their theme together. Common themes include superheroes, sports teams, or repurposed Halloween costumes and often feature hand-made floats.

The parade kick-offs in Houdini Plaza at 6pm. After the parade, join us in City Park for the after-party. Enjoy free activities, entertainment, food trucks, and an award ceremony! We’d love to see you at this summer tradition to celebrate the kids in our community!

Sign your family up or form a group from your school, daycare, work, business, or any other organization.

This is a free event, but registration is required.
