To ensure the health and safety of all attendees, multiple COVID-19 mitigation strategies have been implemented this year which includes reduced entries, reduced entry occupants, and the elimination of the pre-parade viewing event traditionally held the evening before the parade. Additionally, it is strongly encouraged to social distance when possible, and wear masks. If you or a loved one is feeling sick, please stay home and consider enjoying the parade telecast from the comfort of your home.
