The Fiesta Bowl Parade Returns to Phoenix

With frenzied shoppers and the holiday spirit in the air, it is time once again for the 2016 Fiesta Bowl Parade. In its 46th year, the National Bank of Arizona Fiesta Bowl Parade features many brightly-colored floats, balloons, bands, equestrian, dance groups and local celebrities.

The parade begins at 10 a.m. on Saturday, December 31, 2016, kicking off from Central Avenue, just north of Montebello Avenue. The 2-mile parade route travels south to Camelback Road, then east to 7th Street, and finally south again finishing just south of Minnezona Avenue.

The parade is free to experience the annual Southwestern display of culture and spirit unless you would like to pay for reserved bleacher seats at Missouri Street and Central Avenue at $25 each or $10 for reserved handicap accessible seating. Tickets can be purchased here.


If you can’t make it to the parade you can watch it live on 3TV, azfamily.com, or the 3TV News mobile app.
