Parade season runs from late May to late September. We love participating in central Iowa parades with our joyful walkers, sharing the Pro-Life message with our happy truth telling signs, smiles, waves, sometimes candy, and happily receiving the cheers and thank you’s from watchers along small-town streets and more populated city routes. The Pro-Life community is gaining momentum, standing stronger, gaining its voice, and seeing real successes across Iowa! Consider joining us on one or more parade routes next year!!

Our 2026 schedule included Indianola Memorial Day Parade (May 25); Van Meter Raccoon River Days Parade (June 6); West Des Moines July 3rd Parade (July 3); Norwalk 4th of July Parade (July 4); New Virginia Old Settlers Parade (July 11); Adel Sweet Corn Festival Parade (August 8); Dallas Center Parade (August 29); and Indianola Log Cabin Days Parade (September 26). Pictures from all parades are below, except the largest of the parades: The Iowa State Fair Parade (which has its own post). One or more of the scheduled parades did not happen because of inclement weather.

Do you have any suggestions for parades to bring the Pro-Life message to or do you want to be notified about the Pro-Life parade schedule, email the office at [email protected] or call the office at 515-244-1012 and we will happily place your email on our list for parades.
