A Bismarck Tradition
Fall Into The Celebration
The Autumnfest Parade is a beloved all-American tradition in Bismarck, North Dakota, where the sounds of fall come to life. Marching bands from across the Bismarck-Mandan area fill the air with music, while floats, beauty queens, community organizations, classic cars, horses, and clowns roll past the State Capitol.
Each year, thousands of families line the route to take it all in — a day full of music, laughter, and community spirit. So bring the whole family and FALL INTO THE CELEBRATION.
