PARTICIPATION IN THE 2010 PARADE

Parade Participation
The Belk Carolinas' Carrousel Parade, also known as the Thanksgiving Day Parade, consists of approximately 100 units divided into four categories: Floats, Marching Bands, Step/Drill Teams and Special Units. All parade entries are by invitation of the parade committee. For groups other than high school Marching Bands, there is a fee to participate.

The parade’s organizing committee seeks a combination of units that will meet the organization's mission of enhancing the regional area's community life through quality family-oriented entertainment.

We'd like to hear about your potential parade unit. The Parade Rules and Regulations will give you details about the parade; see the Parade Participation Check List for the forms needed to present your unit for consideration. Please refer to our Application for Participation Deadlines.  As the total number of units in the parade is limited, we strongly encourage you to submit your information prior to those deadlines. 

Participation in the parade is by invitation only. The committee will review the forms you submit and will determine if you will be invited to be part of this event. If you are invited, you will be notified and invoiced for the entry fee, if applicable (see Parade Participation Pricing Sheet).

We are accepting applications for participation--please send your applications to the parade office as soon as possible. Call 704-525-0250 for information or email: info@carrouselparade.org.
