Tips & Advice
- Choose a viewing spot near Midway Rec Center’s viewing stand to hear the emcee describe participating entries as they pass.
- Watch for float walkers, who may hand candy to spectators; candy is not thrown from parade entries.
- Arrive with time to settle along the route before the procession reaches you, since the pages give no spectator arrival guidance.
- Bring warm layers for an evening parade, and be prepared to stand while the decorated entries pass.
- Take photos as illuminated floats and vehicles approach, while keeping clear of the moving procession.
