The annual FIBArk parade is a highlight of the festival enjoyed by locals and visitors alike. The Parade features folks from all over Colorado to join in this FIBArk tradition. Spectators line streets to cheer everything from horse-drawn wagons, monster trucks, elaborate floats, and "Hooligan" crafts, all in a spirited family atmosphere.
