Step into the heart of North Dakota pride at the largest parade in the state, held annually during the ND State Fair! This year’s theme, “Small Town Roots, Big Dakota Touchdowns,” celebrates the spirit of community and the love of football that runs deep across the prairie.

Parade begins on South Broadway and winds through downtown Minot and concludes at the State Fairgrounds, setting the stage for a day full of fair festivities.

The parade features a vibrant lineup of colorful floats, marching bands, local organizations, and specialty vehicles, including a special appearance by the iconic Oscar Mayer Wienermobile—a first for the event!
