Juneteenth Atlanta Parade: Black History Going National​

​Help us build a nationally recognized parade that represents all black history! Reserve and create your own float displaying black history and achievements pre/post slavement. Choose from ancient times, historic Kemet, the middle passage, inventors, abolitionist, entrepreneurs, political achievements, musicians, athletes, revolutionaries. You're only limited by your own imagination.

​Want to make a statement for the world to notice? Customize your float with a team, organization, school, business, or church and display it in the Juneteenth Atlanta Parade & Music Festival. You can have additional people walk with the float as well as lead the float with your organization's branded banner.

All floats will be delivered in time for the parade lineup. All floats come with a fully insured driver and a vehicle to pull your float. All you have to do is reserve your float, assemble your team and be ready to ride. The rest is history!
