The annual Balboa Island Parade files down Marine Ave. on Sunday with star-spangled floats, festooned tricycles, marching bands, antique cars carrying local dignitaries, fire trucks, Keystone Cops, and gussied-up dogs in the island's biggest event of the summer.

This year's theme is  “Horsin’ Around Island Style.”

The length of the parade is approximately two and one-half blocks. 

The fun continues with the ‘After Parade Event’ featuring local band The Fabulous Nomads, as well as activities in the 100 block of Marine Avenue following the Parade, (in front of the Fire Station).
