Nevada City Constitution Day Parade & Celebration
Nevada City's 41st annual Constitution Day Parade & Celebration on Sept. 13-14 has been a local tradition since 1967 and is reported to be the oldest and largest Constitution observance in western America. The 2 p.m. Sunday parade features more than 100 entries and culminates other activities including Civil War reenactments in Pioneer Park on Saturday and a band concert and pre-parade ceremonies on Sunday. The parade through the downtown Nevada City historic district includes marching bands, floats, antique autos, equestrians, politicians and perennial crowd favorites such as the Ophir Prison Marching Kazoo Band and the Marching Presidents of Nevada City, a humorous but reverent group that portrays each U.S. president. Members of the American Civil War Association will offer living history and battle reenactments at 1 p.m. and 4 p.m. Saturday and at 11 a.m. Sunday in Pioneer Park. More than 200 reenactors are expected to take part.
