Safety precautions
Yes, your dog is welcome during the parade if it is not afraid of sudden and loud noises.
More than 1,500 volunteers and actors walk around during the procession and some animals are frightened by the acts.
That is not good for the safety of visitors and your dog.
In that case, it is better to leave your pet at home.
