Parade Schedule

On Cactus Thursday, every August, the parade leaves the Dundas Driving Park at 6:45 p.m. sharp, making its way toward King Street, where it marches through the entire downtown core of Dundas, to the delight and excitement of the thousands of children and adults alike, who eagerly await this event that launches the annual Cactus Festival in the Valley Town.

Join us for an evening of free and fun family entertainment. Bring your lawn chair or find a spot to stand on the sidewalk for the greatest show in town!
