Alpacas, police dogs and pet fortune tellers will be part of

more than 1,500 visitors and pet owners accompanied by
animals dressed in wild and crazy costumes.
Past events have included kids from First Presbyterian Church Nursery School in

Burlingame High School Band and the Los Trancos Woods
Community Marching Band. It will begin at 10 a.m. on
Broadway in Burlingame. Pet owners who wish to march with
their pets must report by 9:30 a.m. to the parking lot near
Broadway and Chula Vista. There is no charge to participate.
This family-friendly event offers free entertainment and art
projects for children. Pet fortune tellers will be stationed
at the Peninsula Humane Society & SPCA's mobile adoption pet
vehicle.
Every participant receives a souvenir ribbon and fancy
ribbons are awarded for the Best Pet Trick; Most Unusual
Pet; Best Dressed Pet; and Most Original Float, Group or
Wagon. A Grand Prize winner is selected.
The parade was started in 2004 by a group of volunteers who
wanted to promote community spirit. It is entirely supported
by volunteers and community donations.
Other events in Burlingame to celebrate the season include the Annual Holiday Tree Lighting Ceremony at City Hall held before the parade. In the spring, you can hop into action as the Burlingame Egg Hunts invite the community youth to search for the hidden eggs.
