PARADES
​

We are the only event planning service in our area with extensive experience planning parades, including the Asheville Holiday Parade and the Mardi Gras Parade. Planning a parade is event planning on steroids. All the elements of event planning are there, but the actual event is in motion, with hundreds of entries and thousands of spectators.

Our State that features the Asheville Holiday parade Eleanor Campbell organized in 2005.  The parade has over 100 entries, 25,000+ spectators, and requires coordinating police, fire, emergency and street services as well as street vendors, VIP's, media, and 1,000 participants of all ages. Ms. Campbell coordinated the parade for the last three years that it was run by a non profit called Asheville Merchants Corporation. Today, the parade is handled by the Asheville Downtown Association, and she is a key volunteer.
