Bring on the parade and bring on the college football—it’s Bowl Week in Orlando. The 2010 Orlando Citrus Parade takes place on December 30 at 11:00 a.m., in preparation for the Capital One Bowl that will take place at the Citrus Bowl on New Year’s Day. The 2011 Capital One Bowl pits Michigan State against Alabama, but fans of all persuasions can enjoy the parade as it winds its way through the streets of downtown Orlando.
The New Year’s Day bowl game in Orlando was formerly known as the Citrus Bowl, and the citrus-themed floats are constructed by 600+ volunteers who attach the oranges, tangerines and grapefruits to a wire frame using rubber bands. The winner of the 2010 Orlando Citrus Parade drawing contest will also be an honorary Grand Marshall in the parade and have their drawing featured on the cover of the parade's program.
