Before engines thunder at the Brickyard, Indianapolis comes alive with the Indy 500 Festival Parade, a burst of color and pageantry that launches race weekend. The 33 Indy 500 drivers wave from convertibles, marching bands set the cadence, and towering balloons and ornate floats roll past cheering sections. Celebrities, community groups, and IndyCar themes all blend into a uniquely Hoosier celebration in the heart of downtown.
Staged on the Saturday of race weekend, the parade is a tradition since 1957 that welcomes more than 200,000 spectators and remains one of the nation’s largest.
