The Big Top Parade will return to the streets of downtown Baraboo on Saturday, June 13, 2026. The main event — the Big Top Parade — kicks off at 11:00 a.m. Along with our grand marshal, the parade features traditional circus parade units and circus-themed entries created by community groups and businesses. Young and old will be enthralled by the historic circus wagons, marching bands, community floats, horses and of course, a cavalcade of clowns!

Join us for America’s 250th Birthday themed parade and star-spangled celebration in downtown Baraboo!
