“The BIGGEST LITTLE PARADE IN ARIZONA” - SIGN UP FOR THE 2024 Founders’ Day PARADE
ABOUT MARANA’S FOUNDERS’ DAY PARADE
Founders’ Day: Parade and Festivities is Marana’s birthday! Forty-seven years ago, a group of Southern Arizona farmers changed history. Marana was officially incorporated on March 21, 1977, and has exponentially grown to become the second-largest populated town in southern Arizona. Today, Marana is now home to over 60,000 people and is still growing! Now, on the third Saturday in March, friends, neighbors, and visitors come together in Downtown Marana to honor the community’s heritage with the “Biggest Little Parade in Arizona” and festivities afterward.
2024 Parade Registration is closed!
It will open again Fall 2024.
