2024 Fred Meyer Junior Parade Community Entries

The Rose Festival and the Fred Meyer Junior Parade are quickly approaching and we would love for you to join in on the fun! This year's Rose Festival theme is "Dream Forward". The Fred Meyer Junior Parade will be on Wednesday, June 5, 2024 in the Hollywood District of Portland.

The Fred Meyer Junior Parade is the nation’s OLDEST and LARGEST children's parade! We are excited to celebrate the community as children and their adult chaperones gather to march in the spirit of fun and celebration. Come share the joy: bring your family, friends, team or class. You can build a float, dress up, or ride your bike! Be creative!

If your group would like to participate this year, please fill out this form below by Friday, April 26th for inclusion in the TV parade script. (Entries received after April 26 will still be considered for entry, but may not be included in the TV parade script.)
