This cost includes a vehicle and driver to pull the float. Float will arrive at least 2 hours prior to parade start time.
This is an easy, show up, hop on-and-ride option to join the parade and promote your business or organization. Rental floats can be customized by adding a banner and/or other props related to your business/organization and should be provided by the renter and installed the day of the parade.
