Fremont Solstice Parade

Saturday June 22, 2024 at 1 PM

Join the festivities of the 2024 Fremont Solstice Parade!

Experience the awe-inspiring sight of community-based, people-powered ensembles parading through the vibrant streets of Fremont, showcasing giant puppets, stilt walkers, floats, dancers, cyclists, and musicians in a kaleidoscope of joyous human expression.

Starting at the intersection of Leary Ave N and N. 39th St, our journey will take us along N. 36th St, leading to the iconic Lenin statue at Evanston Ave N. and N. 36th St. We'll then turn onto Evanston Ave N. and conclude at the intersection of the Fremont Rocket, located at Evanston Ave N. and N. 35th St.

Following the parade, the excitement continues as parade floats and ensembles will be on display around the intersection for about an hour. Don't miss this chance to mingle with the creators who bring the magic to the annual Fremont Solstice Parade.
