Get ready to roll back the clock!
On behalf of Mayor Laurie Miller and Town Council, we invite dignitaries, businesses, organizations and cultural groups to join us for the Bowden Daze Rodeo Parade on Saturday, July 11, 2026.
This year’s theme is “The Fabulous 50s & 60s,” and we’re bringing all the retro vibes—classic cars, bicycles, rock ’n’ roll, bright colours, and a whole lot of fun. Whether you go all out with a themed entry or simply add your own creative flair, we’d love to have you be part of the celebration.
You are also invited to take in the Bowden Agricultural Society Annual Rodeo, happening all weekend at the rodeo grounds just south of Town.
The parade staging area will once again be at Bowden Grandview School on 21st Avenue. Please arrive from 9:30 a.m. onwards for an 11:00 a.m. start.
And don’t forget to swing by the pancake breakfast at the Igloo Arena starting at 8:30 a.m.—a perfect way to fuel up before the festivities begin! Fortis Alberta will also host a smokies lunch at 1:00 pm.
To help us plan, please complete the attached registration form and return it to the Town Administration Office by mail, in person, or by email to info@bowden.ca.
We can’t wait to see what you bring to the parade—let’s make it a day full of energy, community spirit, and a little rock ’n’ roll.
Warm regards,
Bowden Daze Parade Committee
