The parade is organized by Nevada Day Inc. a not for profit 501c3 business.
The modern parade started in 1938 in Carson City but the history on commemorating our statehood predates the 1938 parade by more than 60 years thanks to the Society of Nevadans who hosted smaller celebrations throughout the state.
Grants from local and state government, donations from businesses and private parties, and volunteer hours.
Entry fees go directly to conducting the parade and back into the community through vendors, permits, insurance, and operating costs, etc.
