City of Trees Parade and Mardi Gras Festival 2025!

  • February 22, 2025
  • 3:00 PM - 9:00 PM
  • Capitol Mall


The City of Trees Parade is a dazzling showcase of Sacramento’s rich diversity and culture! Last year’s event included 1,300 performers from 55 different groups, and this year’s event will be even bigger!!   

Join in on the all-afternoon festival beginning at 3pm, right on Capitol Mall. Kids enter free with RSVP! There will be live performances, interactive exhibits, food trucks, local vendors, and a beverage garden to wet your whistle and help us raise funds for this non-profit event. 

Bring your lawn chair or blanket and you’ll be able to watch our fantastic parade as it rolls past the festival toward tower bridge, culminating in Sacramento’s only evening-time parade, featuring light-up art cars from Burning Man! From 7 to 9 PM you'll be able to see all of these light up art cars in all their glory, parked right inside the festival grounds.  https://cityoftreesparade.org/city-of-trees-parade/

The parade is free to see all up and down the parade route from the Capitol to Old Sacramento, but to get entry to the festival grounds where there is live music and performances, you need tickets which are $10.97 at https://ticketstripe.com/cityoftrees
