Started in 1999, the Oakland Holiday Parade draws more than 100,000 people – children of all ages – converging on downtown Oakland to enjoy the spectacular floats, the colorful balloons, the beautiful floats, and the award-winning marching bands. Some 40 cartoon and storybook children’s characters entertain. As do bands – many bands. The 2012 parade will feature some 20 marching high school bands, as well as two international bands – from Guatemala and Jamaica. It is the first holiday parade in the country, in fact, that features bands from outside of the United States.
