92nd Annual Texas Citrus Fiesta Parade Of Oranges

The City of Mission is proud to be home to one of the largest parades in South Texas, the Texas Citrus Fiesta Parade of Oranges. On January 27, 2024, the Parade of Oranges filled the streets with local marching bands, dance performances, citrus-themed attire, and the traditional royal court. Leading the parade as Grand Marshal was the Texas A&M Parsons Mounted Cavalry.

Under the theme “Noche de Carnaval,” the parade consisted of over 180 floats and thousands of spectators lined up along Conway Avenue to experience the vibrant tradition.

More than just a parade, this event unites the community and showcases the region’s citrus industry.
