The scenic, bayside streets of downtown San Diego will come alive with the 2019 Port of San Diego Holiday Bowl Parade! As always, this exciting family event brings together world-class marching bands, magnificent floats, entertaining drill teams, and a procession of enormous balloons - more than any other parade! Over 100,000 street-side spectators will enjoy the parade along with a nationwide television audience in celebration of Holiday Bowl game day.

Parade festivities will begin in the television area with the Solar Turbines 5K Run/Walk.
