KIRKLAND, Wash. – The 25th annual Celebrate Kirkland Parade returns Thursday, July 4, 2024! We are currently seeking volunteers to help ensure this fun community event is a success. If you are a local business, organization, club, social group or even a family, it’s the perfect opportunity to give back and get involved with your community! Volunteer roles include: being on the parade route, answering spectator questions, helping with Kid’s Decorating and Giveaways, the Veteran’s area, and set up and break down of the event.

“We are thrilled to once again host this beloved Kirkland tradition that has been bringing our community together for more than two decades,” said Deputy Mayor Jay Arnold. “Being a volunteer is a great way to experience the event in the middle of the action, meet new people and support the whole community.”

  • 10:30 a.m. Kid’s decorating station at the Lakeshore Plaza
  • 11:30 a.m. Kids walking parade
  • 12:00 p.m. Big parade!
