The IPL 500 Festival Parade allows all spectators to witness the pageantry and larger-than-life floats light up the streets of downtown Indianapolis. Well-known celebrities, costumed characters, marching bands, patriotic units, specialty units, spectacular floats and giant helium balloons will fill the streets to celebrate the world's largest single-day sporting event, the Indianapolis 500^®.

Hundreds of Hoosiers, families, companies and teams will join together on June 8 at Butler University to raise the needed funding for local lung disease programs and life-saving research.  It is also a great opportunity to raise awareness for the 1,000,000 Indiana residents who suffer from lung disease today. Please join the thousands of individuals across the nation who believe in the cause and will walk in their communities as well.
