Get a sneak a peak of each Float & Inflatable during the 2013 Republic Bank Pegasus Parade Preview Party on Tuesday, April 30, from 5:00 PM to 9:00 PM. The 2013 event will be held at the Kentucky Exposition Center in the North Wing. The venue will explode with larger-than-life animation. Bring your family for an evening of fun with the people who make the parade truly spectacular. Each Float & Inflatable is displayed in all its splendor, complete with dancing costumed characters.

Giant Inflatable Character Units along with Equestrian Units will join the Floats on display for an “inside” view of a parade. Your children can get an autograph or photo of the Derby Festival Queen and Royal Court while they stroll through this indoor “carnival of fun.”

Even if you have tickets to Thursday’s parade, this event offers a close-up view of fantastically detailed Floats and a taste of the entire Parade, including bands, giant character balloons, horses, clowns and more! With music and magic close enough to touch; the Republic Bank Pegasus Parade Preview Party is a favorite for kids of all ages.
