On Oct. 14, the University of Idaho will celebrate the 115th annual homecoming parade. The Annual Best Western Plus University Inn Homecoming Parade will begin at 12:30 p.m. and will traverse downtown Moscow prior to the homecoming football game. 

The parade will follow the homecoming theme, “There’s no place like Moscow,” a reference to the movie “Wizard of Oz.”  

Parade check-in will take place at Rants and Raves at 10 a.m. on the day of the parade.  

Parade float applications are free until Oct. 7. Applications submitted between Oct. 8 to Oct. 13 will have a $10 fee. Registration on the day of the parade will be $20.  

Future Vandals are also encouraged to join the second year of the Future Vandal Parade. Children ages 12 and under can be registered to join the parade with no registration cost. Registration for the Future Vandal Parade ends at noon on Oct. 13. Check-in for the Future Vandal Parade is at 11:30 a.m. on Oct. 14 at Friendship Square Park.
