Make plans for next year's Nevada Day Parade:
The 2011 Parade Winners are HERE! Nevada Day is a grand celebration commemorating our admission to statehood in 1864. Nevadan's have the distinction of holding the largest formal statehood celebration in the nation! The highlight of our celebration is the Nevada Day Parade, which is held on the last Saturday of October. In addition to the parade, Nevada Day special events take place all weekend. Next year's Nevada Day Parade takes place on Saturday, October 27, 2012, with events spanning from Thursday, October 25 through Sunday, October 28. The theme for our 2012 parade is still to be announced. Keep checking back for more information! Each year the parade starts a 10:00am and meanders its way down Carson Street, concluding (most years) at approximately 1:00pm. The parade kicks off with an 8:00am hot air balloon launch on Carson Street (weather permitting), followed closely with a 10:00am flyover of military craft from the Fallon Naval Air Station and the Nevada Air Guard. Awards in many categories are given including one for best float, best band, best mounted equestrian group, and best historical.
