Celebrate Santa Clara’s Biggest Year in Sports from Super Bowl 60 to FIFA World Cup in 2026.
The world is coming to Santa Clara, and we are part of the excitement! Since 1945, the Santa Clara Parade of Champions Festival has honored WWII veterans, champions, community and front-line heroes. Did you know Santa Clara for over a century has produced 80 Olympians and countless sports legends? Extraordinary for a small city!
The Sports FAN Zone is where our community met their Local and Pro champions before and after the Parade! Celebrity players and legends like Warriors’ alumni and NBC Sports Analyst Kelenna Azubuiki, former FIFA World Cup, Olympic medalist, and BAY FC co-owner Brandi Chastain, and Earthquakes DeJuan Jones came to play. Stay tuned for our 2026 line up.
Our Bay Area Sports Teams brought their inflatable interactive booths, Players and Mascots. Loved having the SJ Earthquakes, Sharks, 49ers, and Bay FC. So bring your Fan Zone Spirit and appetite— we will be keeping the energy high until 5 PM.
