Parade of Homes Entry Information

Entry Registration Open May 27, 2025 - August 1, 2025

The PA Parade of Homes is the most successful Parade Event in Central PA. During the Parade, thousands of in-person visits are recorded across the homes. This year, in addition to in-person tours, we are including a virtual component for Builders and Associates alike to show off their skill and designs in home building, interior and exterior designs, pools, kitchens, baths, remodels, and cabinetry. Familiar and well-known, no other event provides the same exposure as the PA Parade of Homes.
