2026 Parade Winners

A hearty thank you to all who participated in this year’s parade! Demonstrating tremendous Northwest-Nordic spirit, parade participants enjoyed perfect weather and sidewalks brimmed with spectators throughout Ballard this year. Whisked along the construction battered streets on the sumptuous harmonies of more than a dozen award-wining marching bands.

Congratulations to our winners and thank you to our judges for their efforts in selecting these standouts from a very competitive field.

Special shout out to our Norwegian Consulate Award Winner: Karmoy Club
