Thanksgiving Day Parade:The West Kept Secret

Thanksgiving Day The "West" Kept Secret Start you Holiday with U

For the last 39 years, Fountain Hills has been the site of an annual Thanksgiving Day Parade.  Once again, the Chamber of Commerce will be hosting the Thanksgiving Day Parade from 9:30 am - 11 am.

The Thanksgiving Day Parade has become a local hometown favorite that draws spectators from across the state who want to ring in Thanksgiving Day with a classic parade. The event starts right at 9:30 am and lasts approximately one hour. Tons of local businesses participate, as well as Veteran groups, classic car clubs, service organizations, and many more. With floats, marching bands, animal groups, dance routines, motorcycle shows, and more, this is the place to be on Thanksgiving morning!

Don't forget - Santa Claus himself arrives in Fountain Hills for the first time this holiday season at the Thanksgiving Day Parade! He is the event's finale, so make sure to stick around at the end to give Santa a wave!

2023 Theme: "The West Kept Secret" - decorate your float, entry, or costumes!
