Posted on by

Fred Meyer Junior Parade logoFun reigns at the Fred Meyer Junior Parade from the moment the lovable Fred Bear cuts the ribbon to the last float that goes down the street. Children from all parts of Portland participate by dressing in costume, transforming wagons into floats, decorating bikes with colorful flowers, or just by parading with friends and family. The parade also includes local school marching bands and dance teams.

The Junior Parade is the oldest and largest Children’s Parade in the Nation. Hope to see you there!
