Celebrate Birmingham Parade

Join the fun by marching in the city's annual Celebrate Birmingham Parade.

This year's theme is "The Good Ole' Days;" you'll enjoy old-fashioned games in the park and vintage items. Children will be delighted to see a tractor, fire engine and so much more.

Crowd favorites are the bands, community groups, and floats.  The exciting new grand finale of the parade includes the Whiskers and Waggles Pet Parade featuring kids from the Birmingham School District and their pets!
