The Annual Grande Parade, held on Sunday of the Festival, is undoubtedly one of the weekend’s highlights. Starting at North Ridgeville High School at 34600 Bainbridge Road, the parade route winds through Ranger Way, Center Ridge, Root Rd, and Bainbridge before returning to the starting point. With a spectacular lineup of vehicles, including floats, antique cars and trucks, scooters, fire trucks, and as many as 750 enthusiastic marchers, the parade is a joyous celebration for all. The American Judges Association provides an esteemed panel of judges to evaluate the parade, and they award trophies in 15 different categories. These coveted awards include Best Marching Band, Best Float, and Best Antique Vehicle. Whether you’re a participant or spectator, the parade will leave you with unforgettable memories.
