The Menomonee Falls community is proud to host three parades for our friends and neighbors each year. The Knights of Columbus run the Memorial Day Parade.The Optimist Club sponsors and manages the Independence Day Parade and the Christmas Parade. This website has information for spectators, participants and donors about the three parades held in Menomonee Falls, Wisconsin.

The Independence Day Parade is always held on July 3, and is the largest of the three parades held in Menomonee Falls. This parade is very well attended and precedes the annual fireworks display held at Menomonee Falls High School. “Claiming” (a.k.a. saving your spot) for a parade viewing space is allowed during a pre-scheduled time slot as determined by the Menomonee Falls Police Department.

The Christmas Parade route starts at the intersection of Main Street and Harrison, travels through Downtown Menomonee Falls west on Main Street to Appleton Avenue, turns left at Appleton Avenue and travels south to Appleton Avenue and Arthur Avenue where the parade ends.
