The Do-Dah parade is a 40 year plus tradition full of laughter, community celebration, and a little bit of the “how did they come up with that?” feel. It is focused on promoting businesses, organizations, and everything in between through the creative design of a parade unit. It is entertainment on the streets of downtown Kalamazoo.
The parade date is Saturday, June 6 with step off at 11 a.m. In all its tradition, Do-Dah entries are designed either through a satire or the annual theme. This year, the Do-Dah Parade is celebrating all things Disney and Pixar. Whether you’re a fan of classic fairytales or modern Pixar masterpieces, come see how Kalamazoo "tells the story" of our community through the lens of your favorite movies. Pack your lawn chairs and get there early to grab a spot!

Every great Disney/Pixar movie starts with a dream—just like your business did. ✨
This year, the Do-Dah Parade is going cinematic! With our parade theme of Disney & Pixar Movies, and we’re inviting you to be the main character. Whether you want to tell the "Origin Story" of why you started your business, share what you love about our community, or recreate a classic fairytale ending, the street is your stage. Don’t just march—tell your story! 📖✨
