Join us for one of Vernon’s most beloved traditions — the 65th Annual Winter Carnival Parade! This year, we’re celebrating Team Carnival Canada Goes for Gold, so bring the whole family, a thermos of hot chocolate or soup, and, of course, your Carnival spirit. Take in all the incredible entries and vote for your fan favorite — the Overall Parade Spirit (Christel Cam Memorial) award will be decided by the community online after the parade!
Think you have what it takes to wow the crowd? Enter the parade with your own creative and entertaining entry inspired by the 2026 theme. The registration deadline is January 31, 2026, so don’t wait — register now.
Celebrate, cheer, and show your true Carnival spirit — it’s your time to shine!
