Why not get involved and showcase your business, community group or school to the town by entering the parade.   It’s a great opportunity for some friendly competition and team building, while you work on your float ideas with colleagues or club members. We promise you’ll have a ball in the process!

The Street Parade is always reef-themed, this year’s theme focuses on the oceans majestic giants, the ‘Whales of the Whitsundays‘……. but feel free to throw in the odd dolphin or dugong to showcase all of the majestic creatures in the Whitsunday’s.

Entries can be a ‘walking’ entry or vehicle ‘float’ or a combination of both.

There will be great cash prizes (and bragging rights) for;

• • Best business
  • Best not-for-profit
  • Most Creative and Wacky

The closing date for entries is Wednesday, August 2 – so get creating now!

You can watch the fun of the parade from the many bars and cafes that line the street.
