The Bavarian Festival Parade
The Bavarian Festival Parade is just as well known as the Bavarian Festival itself drawing thousands of spectators and featuring more than 100 entries. Locals refer to "Parade Sunday" as a local holiday and you can't help but feel German for a day as you watch the marching bands, dance clubs, dignitaries and of course, the Bavarian Princess and her court glide down Main Street. The "Kinder Parade" which literally translates to "kids parade" is especially for the little ones to celebrate the German Heritage of Frankenmuth and Bavarian Festival. Its fun, festive, and there's nothing cuter than seeing babies dressed in lederhosen and dirndls.
