Participate in the Parade

Cue the 76 trombones. On Friday, July 4th, the Southwest Airlines July 4 Parade will pay tribute to Philadelphia and display how this "City of Firsts" lives, works, plays, and celebrates. Stepping off at 6:00 p.m. from Logan Circle at 18th Street and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway and reaching the television viewing area at 7:00 p.m., the one-and-a-half-hour parade will be jammin’ with entertainment including Mummers, music and dance teams, and fife & drums corps up to its culmination point at the foot of the Philadelphia Museum of Art.

Details regarding participation in the 2008 July 4th Parade coming soon.  For more ways to participate in this year’s festival, check out information on becoming a sponsor, volunteering your time, and becoming a vendor!
