The parade has been running along Wyandotte St for the past few years
This Sunday is Windsor's Canada Day parade and there's some important things you need to know if you're going to it.
First, it's been moved back downtown after running along Wyandotte Street the past few years.
Second, there is construction along Ouellette Ave and there are places were people cannot sit to view the parade.
Executive Director of the Windsor Parade Corporation, Maggie Durocher says from Wyandotte to Elliott is not a viewing area for the parade.
It is also a non-performance area for the parade due to the construction.
"That is not a viewing area for the parade. No one will be allowed to sit in that area to watch the parade. We have been told that is a non-performance area for the parade. So our bands will literally march through there. There will be no playing of music in that area. Because it's narrow we'll have to roll in our flag a little a bit. That is risk management, City of Windsor, Windsor Police as well, letting us know that is a no spectator area."
Durocher says the parade will start from the corner of Ouellette and Giles.
"We're usually very prompt, but we're going to be on the mark of 11am this year because we really want to get this parade, we're really loving it being back on Ouellette Ave, however with the heat, we'd really like to be out of it by 12:30pm."
The parade will proceed north to Pitt Street, featuring local bands, floats, entertainers, and more.
Immediately after the Canada Day Parade, the community is encouraged to head to the Riverfront Festival Plaza to enjoy a piece of the giant 5,000 piece Canada Day cake.
AM800's own Mike and Lisa will be taking part in this year's parade as well.
