Decorations:
All entries for the Fiesta Parade are encouraged to have fiesta-related decorations.

Candy and Handouts:
Throwing candy from vehicles or floats along the parade route is prohibited. This creates a very dangerous situation for youngsters running into the middle of parade entries and vehicles, or reaching their hand out under vehicles. Walkers must distribute candy or novelty items curbside, in a safe manner, no throwing allowed!

Parade Rules
There will be no advertising that mentions politicians, political parties, or politically affiliated organizations. This is an event that celebrates our Mexican culture, and not our political beliefs. All vehicles must comply with all applicable laws and be operated by licensed drivers. In order to help maintain a smooth lineup, entrants must be registered and have paid the $15 entry fee to ensure a spot in the parade by the parade lineup time. The parade committee reserves the right to refuse entry to any entrant that does not comply with these rules.
