Get ready for a unique sight in Canton, Ohio! The night before the Grand Parade, over two miles of roped-off camping chairs and pop-up tents line Cleveland Avenue. Thousands of spectators camp out to secure their spots for the 8:00 am parade. This cherished tradition, dating back to 1963, draws around 200,000 people annually, making it the 5th largest parade in the country and Canton's biggest free event. Join the fun with helium balloons, marching bands, colorful floats, dance troupes, and enthusiastic football fans. Don't miss the stars of the show, the 2025 Enshrinees and returning Hall of Famers, as they make their way down the 2.2-mile parade route! Limited seats along the parade route available.
