VENDOR APPLICATIONS FOR THE 2025 PET PURINA PET PARADE AND BUD LIGHT GRAND PARADE WILL OPEN ONLINE NOVEMBER 21 @ NOON

Purina Pet Parade

Sunday, February 23, 2025

Registration: 10:00 am // Parade: 1:00 pm 

Begins at 12th and Allen. See map below for complete parade route

Registration Fee: $10 donation

Free for spectators to watch the parade

At the world’s largest costumed pet parade, we combine all the fun of Mardi Gras with all the AWWWWs that the most adorable parade participants deserve. It is free to watch and easy to head straight to the Taste of Soulard or Wiener Dog Derby after the parade ends.

If you have a precious pet who belongs in the parade, register your furry friend beforehand online or on the day of the event at 12th and Allen so you both can strut your stuff in style. 

All proceeds from the Purina Pet Parade will benefit Open Door Animal Sanctuary.
