Our theme for 2026 is “Adventure: St. Joseph.” As the third oldest Apple Blossom Parade in the nation, we’re proud of our heritage and history. And we’re anxious to see how parade entries will use the theme to guide their decorations of floats and vehicles.

We chose this theme because springtime is Apple Blossom Parade time, when gardens and trees — especially apple trees — are coming into bloom, beautifying our world and giving us hope for a wonderful future.
