2024 4th of July Parade Registration Application
Thank you for your interest in the 2024 Fourth of July Freedom Festival and Parade. Our parade is a long-standing tradition in Central Point with upwards of 17,000 attendees! Folks come from all corners of the Valley and beyond to view our beloved parade, and we are quite proud of it!

Parade entry fees are $40 for Central Point Chamber Members and 501(C)(3) nonprofits, and $75 for all other entrants. If your application is accepted, you will be sent payment information. No refunds will be offered. 

Registration closes June 24th. Late registrations are not accepted, the parade usually sells out before the closing date. There are a limited number of entrants allowed. The Chamber Board works hard to have a variety of entrants in the parade to keep it fun and interesting. Please note that not all applications will be accepted. 

ALL RULES AND GUIDELINES MUST BE MET, NOT DOING SO WILL RESULT IN ASKING YOU TO LEAVE THE PARADE, NO REIMBURSEMENTS WILL BE MADE AND YOU WILL NOT BE ALLOWED TO DO THE PARADE IN THE FUTURE. IF your application is approved you will be added to the parade lineup in random order, please know that the order does not reflect when you applied but rather in an order that will keep the parade interesting to onlookers as well as taking into consideration the noise levels for animals and more noise sensitive groups in the parade.

NEW THIS YEAR! Please note that there will be a Mandatory Parade Participant Meeting held at the Central Point Grange Hall at 436 E Pine St. on Thursday, June 27th at 6 pm. AT LEAST one participant from each entry must be present or you will forfeit your parade entry, no reimbursements will be made.
