Ok, the Nickelodeon Parade starts this Saturday. I haven't seen a lot of information come from the park, so I thought I'd give the important details here.

First of all, the Nickelodeon Parade will run from 7/17 through 8/15. The parade will start this Saturday at 5:00 and run through 5:30. I am not entirely certain that this will be the time that it's going to run every day, but it's definitely presumable.

The parade route is as follows:

The parade route follows the dotted line (yeah yeah yeah... it's hard to see). Anyway, as you can see, it starts at The Beastie, travels through HBL, grazes International Street, and ends up in Rivertown near Tomb Raider.

Hope to see you guys there!

THIS JUST IN:

According to Dane, the parade will NOT follow the route stated above. Apparently it has been changed to the following:

From The Racer acces gate, down Coney Mall towards the front of the park, through left turn at Basketballs to infront of the tower, than roars into Hanna Barberra, goes around in Nick Central to The Beasttie gate.

This has not been confirmed, so we'll just have to wait and see!

The parade route is the latter of the two posts. Anyone want more information?

Time: 5pm

Duration: 30 - 45 minutes

Stops: There are 5 parade stops at which times kids are encouraged to come up and play games

Size: roughly 70 - 90 employees and characters on about 6 - 7 large floats or walking.

Cool I see that Squidward will be there but wheres Mr.Krabs?

krabs will never be in the parade. sorry!! the only "special" characters that we have for the parade are: squidward, suzie, and oswald. oh, and the giraffes and cupcakes (yeah, whatever... ) all the other characters in the parade are permanent characters that have been here all year.

oh, interesting fact. hey arnold is a permanent character but he's not in the parade. ever. very confusing.

Are the performers in the parade local yokels or are they people that tour all the Paramount parks with the parade?

The floats are on tour, the actors and actresses are not.

The floats are on tour, the actors and actresses are not.

Thank you Brother!

and alot of the performers in the parade are in the Tuned In show and also the Star Search Live show...they rock my socks off too!

Don't forget about Magic of the Movies! We were all in the parade too! Along with all the ushers, characters, escorts, and as said earlier Tuned In and Star Search.

oh you were?

sorry I had not seen it yet but I'm sure if I would have then I would have realized! haha

is anyone from Tuned In or Star Search on this board? just wondering
