Programmes from earlier years

The Grand Parade
“You are the entertainer – the street is your stage” is the motto of the Grand Parade. The meaning is simple: It is your choice whether you enjoy the parade as spectator or as participant. Everyone can participate in the Grand Parade! You do not have to be a member of a carnival group, you do not have to enrol or know how to dance the Samba – just join in!
