News & Details
The Vernon Avenue Bridge is slated for construction in 2025 and will not affect the 2024 parade.
Parade Details:
The parade begins at 10 a.m. behind Edina City Hall (4801 W. 50th St.) and travels down 50th Street ending at Halifax.
The hour-long parade features veterans, marching bands, floats, horses, musicians, clowns, and more.
We recommend spectators arrive early, since an estimated 20,000 people will attend the parade. The parade will also be broadcast on Edina TV (Comcast channels 16 and 813) and made available later for viewing on the City’s website, YouTube channel, and social media.
