Be a Part of the Action!
Blink and before you know it, Houston Art Car Parade Weekend will be here. It takes a whole lotta people-power to put on the largest, craziest art car parade in the world! See below for ways you can get involved!
Join our Food Vendors on the Parade Route
With a crowd of over 260,000 spectators in 2024, the Houston Art Car Parade is considered the city's largest free public event. We invite food vendors of all types, including food trucks, stationary stands, and food carts, to be a part of the big day and sell their fare to our adoring fans.

Volunteer with us during Parade Weekend!
Each year we recruit hundreds of volunteers to assist with all types of things, from selling t-shirts to stocking beverage booths, to letting us borrow their truck to haul things!
​
As a volunteer, you'll participate in an event that has consistently -- for the past 38 years -- made Houston a cultural force to be reckoned with. It will be zany. It will be hot. Things will get crazy. You'll meet some pretty awesome folks. And, most importantly, you'll find it'll be worth it.
