The Alaska Airlines Seafair Torchlight Parade is Seattle’s signature evening parade within the larger Seafair festival, featuring illuminated floats, marching bands, drill teams, and community groups in a festive nighttime procession. Organized by Seafair and sponsored by Alaska Airlines, the parade follows a route through downtown Seattle where spectators line city streets to watch the lighted displays and performances. It is notable for its family-friendly atmosphere and its role as a highlight of Seattle’s summer festival season.
