Grand Parade

The Pony Express Days Grand Parade is a wonderful tradition for residents and visitors alike. Parade will be held Saturday, June 3, starting at 10 AM.

(Submission of a parade application does not guarantee the applicant a spot in the parade. You will receive approval once applications close in mid-May. Eagle Mountain City is strongly encouraging participation via vehicle or trailer, rather than walking the entire route of the parade. It is always best if the entries are decorated.)
