Those marching in the inaugural parade include marching bands, youth movements, floats from the Midburn Festival, antique automobiles, and players from the Hapoel Jerusalem basketball team.
Not only will the balloons and marchers be included in the spectacle, but musical artists like Matisyahu and Nechi Nech will performance, making this parade a highly anticipated event.
The parade will start at Liberty Bell Park and wind through the city towards the Sultan’s Pool where the performances will take place.
