The annual Bowling Green Community Holiday Parade is held the Saturday before Thanksgiving every year. The parade is made up of dozens floats by local organizations and marching bands from around Northwest Ohio. It draws thousands of watchers to downtown Bowling Green, and is televised through WTOL, making it the largest holiday parade in Northwest Ohio. Santa himself makes an appearance at the end of the parade, so be sure to stop out and enjoy the holiday-themed floats, live performances and music, and, of course, candy!
We could not host this magical community event without the participation of our parade units and sponsors. We offer our sincere thanks to all those who sign up to walk in the parade and generously choose to sponsor the event.
