Contest

For those attending this exciting event; please remember that we need to keep the streets clear at all times. Please only stand on sidewalks and other designated areas.

Need a place to park your wheelchair?
Perhaps you need a place to see the parade, we are trying to make it easier for you! Just look for our signs in Westlake park (in front of the fountain).

This year the Parade is Sunday, June 27th, starting at 11:00 am from the corner of Union St. and 4th Ave. it will be limited to approximately 2 ½ hours in length this year and should take about an hour to go from the start to the end.

The Parade (shown in red) will proceed down 4th avenue to Denny Way. Foot traffic will be allowed to go east or west on Denny Way but all vehicle traffic will be turned west, have until Western Ave to pull over, quickly disembark passengers, secure their vehicles, and leave the area. We will have personnel stationed at this intersection and along Denny Way to help assure the safe and orderly flow of the Parade participants out of the area.

The Parade announcer's booth, ADA viewing area and media viewing area will be located at Westlake Park between Pike and Pine on 4th. We ask that all those attending the Parade watch from the sidewalk we need to keep the street open.

There will be no parking permitted in any areas along the route and all vehicles must be registered, display an event Pass and have a driver in the vehicle at all times. Unattended vehicles will be towed at the owner’s expense.

At five points along the route Metro Busses will periodically need to cross the Parade. SPD and Seattle Out and Proud personnel will be on hand at these points to assist.

One of the many floats built by Classic Parade Floats

Classic Parade Floats (CPF), the official float provider for Pride 2010, is ready to create for our sponsors innovative and inventive floats that are certain to make your company or cause a sure-fire stand out in the parade that everyone will notice, talk about and remember.

With decades of experience, Classic Parade Floats come highly regarded and
have created floats locally for Seafair, the Starlight Foundation and Showcase Events as well as for parades and celebrations all across the US.

They are offering Pride sponsors an enchanting menu of unique and imaginative creations that range from super-affordable (yet delightfully wild and whimsical) one-person 'roly-poly's' to truly mind-bending mega-floats of 20 to 25 feet -- each designed to make a lasting impression on everyone along the route, from start to finish.

We encourage sponsors seeking an enhanced visual presence for the parade to consult directly with Paul Wilds, owner of Classic Parade Floats.
