2025 Atlanta Fall Festival Paws On Parade Rules
Bring your friendly pet on a leash, or in a cage, to the Atlanta Fall Festival Pet Parade! Costumes (for you and your pet) are encouraged but not required. The Pet Parade is an amateur show designed to give Olympia South Elementary district residents an opportunity to display and show their pets. This event is in no way meant to be a professional show.
The parade will start on September 13, 2025, at 2:00 pm. Pet Parade participants should gather at the east side of the stage (side closest to Vine Street) by 1:45 pm to check in. Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult. An award ceremony for the pet contests will be held immediately following the Pet Parade.
