A true community event in the finest tradition, the Macrossan Street Parade has long been a highlight of the Carnivale festival and regularly draws crowds of up to several thousand who line the high street to cheer for their friends and colleagues. Visitors flock to the parade too, as the sense of community spirit and pride is such a tangible part of this Carnivale highlight. It matters not how great or lesser a float: its being there that counts. Some are extravagant, some are simple; all are applauded.

This years Parade theme is Heavenly Bodies

The kids amusement park set up at the Sugar Wharf end of Macrossan Street offers old world fun fair atmosphere for the whole family!

Parade starts at 7 pm.

Floats must register at the assembly area in Mowbray St (outside the Community Centre) between 3 – 6 pm.

NOTE: STRICTLY NO ARTICULATED VEHICLES ARE PERMITTED IN THE STREET PARADE (IE SEMI TRAILERS or LARGE BUSES)
