This year&#8217;s theme commemorates the Festival&#8217;s Golden Anniversary by creating a parade that showcases FUN things to do in Fort Wayne. From a visit to the Zoo to a walk in one of our beautiful parks, or even a baseball game downtown, there is always so much to do! Fort Wayne is a vibrant and thriving city full of inspiring places and events to celebrate.<br \/>\n&#8220;For 50 years, we have had the honor of celebrating the best that our city has to offer,&#8221; said Jack Hammer, Executive Director. &#8220;We are inspired by our past and excited for what our future holds.&#8221;<br \/>\nParade organizers are looking forward to a fantastic parade celebration. This year, focus is being placed on ensuring the parade is exciting for people of all ages.<br \/>\nThe Lutheran Health Network Three Rivers Festival Parade will take place on Saturday, July 14 at 10:00am.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>About Three Rivers Festival<\/strong><br \/>\nThree Rivers Festival, established in 1969, is a not-for-profit organization, funded entirely by souvenir sales, event participation fees, refreshment &#038; entertainment tickets, and the generous support and sponsorship of area businesses.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/img_3525.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view, courtesy of John McGauley.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='5a68b84e08db004f3ad6d0e6badf8f15' data-image-id=\"2168\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/img_3525.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/thumbs\/thumbs_img_3525.jpg\" data-title=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view\" data-description=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view, courtesy of John McGauley.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"2168\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/thumbs\/thumbs_img_3525.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/img_3527.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view, courtesy of John McGauley.\"\n\t\t\tclass='thickbox' rel='5a68b84e08db004f3ad6d0e6badf8f15' data-image-id=\"2169\" data-src=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/img_3527.jpg\" data-thumbnail=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/thumbs\/thumbs_img_3527.jpg\" data-title=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view\" data-description=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view, courtesy of John McGauley.\">\n\t\t\t<img title=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view\"\n\t\t\t\talt=\"Three Rivers Festival aerial view\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-image-id=\"2169\"\n\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/thumbs\/thumbs_img_3527.jpg\"\/>\n\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/aroundfortwayne.com\/news\/wp-content\/gallery\/cityscapes\/img_7400.jpg\"\n\t\t\ttitle=\"The new African Journey at the Fort Wayne Children&#039;s Zoo.
