53rd Santa Clara Parade of Champions

Join us in celebrating the Parade!

A Legacy of Community and Front line Heroes at the center of Silicon Valley

Thank you to the thousands that come out to celebrate our Community and Frontline heroes in Person each year!

The Santa Clara Parade of Champions (SCPOC) has been a time-honored legacy in Santa Clara since 1945 when we welcomed home our WWII Heroes. Since then generations of Santa Clarans have never forgotten the memories and sense of community that the parade reinforced year after year. Our 501c3 NPO of grass roots volunteers are grateful to our Champions and Community Heroes for the generous support in bringing back the 50-year-old parade after a 24-year hiatus — we made history together!
