Alaska Airlines Torchlight Parade

Saturday, July 27, 2024

There’s nothing like the Alaska Airlines Seafair Torchlight Parade, and no better place to be on a summer afternoon. The Torchlight Parade is where Seafair celebrates the cultural diversity and traditions of the Pacific Northwest with over 100 parade entries. From dragon dancers to precision drill teams or marching bands to prancing horses, the Alaska Airlines Seafair Torchlight Parade will keep you entertained from start to finish.

The key to success of this event can be summed up in one word – Volunteers! Everyone loves a parade – and the Torchlight Parade has been a Seattle tradition since 1950. Be part of this rich history and join our volunteer team (individually or in groups) to manage floats, marching bands, drill teams, and pirates. There is a role for everyone, including assisting the parade marshals, checking in volunteers, directing attendees to their seats, giving directions at the information booth, providing security and other operational roles. See the parade in a new way, make new friends, celebrate in community, and make an impact. Join us for this fun, upbeat, and energetic event!

All volunteers will receive a volunteer t-shirt.
