The daily puppet parade is always a big highlight of the festival! Our mascot Nick will lead performers, look-alike puppets and special guests from the Library down to the bottom of Mill street starting at 1:45 on Saturday and Sunday. 

Our parade marshalls this year are: Jeff Semple from Global TV, Robyn Miller from CBC, and Order of Canada recipient Linda Manzer.

Don’t miss the Ottawa Sui Yi Multicultural Arts Academy & Art Flow Gallery, and Tanglewood Marionettes coming to celebrate the Year of the Dragon!
