Please Fill Out an Application to Join the Parade.
The Hahira Honey Bee Parade is often referred to as "the largest parade in South Georgia". While we aren't sure if that is true, we are sure that it is fun for young and old alike! There are rules that we must adhere to, set by city ordinances, committee discretion, and state laws. To the right. you will find a link to both the rules and the parade application. This year's theme is:
'Farmers: Providing Nourishment, Sustaining Communities
We encourage you to create, build, and design your entry to fit the theme. Trophies will be awarded for the top three entries based on design, craftsmanship, theme, and originality. We look forward to seeing you...whether in the parade itself or standing at the roadside happily watching!
There will be no road closures, except side roads off Main (Hwy 122).
But...slow traffic due to pedestrian walking...
Main Street and Stanfil will be closed 12-2pm during parade on Saturday Oct 4, 2025
Also, Hwy 41 Detour during parade.
The parade lines up behind Food Lion on Park Ave and Union Road and runs East down Main to HMS then turns North on Nelson to Stanfil returning West to beginning OR OTHER OPTION: Turn South on Nelson
To return to Valdosta and South 41.
