Memorial Day Parade
Come join us for another Topanga Days Parade and bring all of your creative and last-minute ideas to add to our eclectic and vibrant line of canyon parade entries!
This year’s Grand Marshal is World War II veteran and 50-year Topanga resident, 99-year-old Bill Dillon. Bill continues to inspire others with his commitment to service and living life to its fullest.
The impressive parade of floats, cars, kids, firetrucks and more begins at Pine Tree Circle and ends at the entrance to the Topanga Community Center where Monday’s festivities will begin with Gabbi Beauvais singing our National Anthem and Drew Harper playing Reveille on his trumpet while our flag is being raised.

Maintain the Parade Sponsorship: $500
As the costs to put on Topanga Days, the TCC’s main fundraiser of the year, have almost doubled in many areas this year, the costs for putting on the parade are daunting as well, so the TCC is hoping that local businesses will continue to help Maintain the Parade with a $500 tax deductible donation. We hope that this tradition can continue so that our community’s parade can always be a part of the Topanga Days weekend.
