Art Bike Parade

Join Houston Parks Board and the Orange Show Center for Visionary Art for Houston’s inaugural Art Bike Parade on May 9. Building on Houston's beloved Art Car Parade, the Art Bike Parade will bring together community members and youth programs from across the city to explore our personal creativity and discover everything our Bayou Greenways have to offer.

The Art Bike Parade will kick off along Allen Parkway, where event participants will cycle together to showcase their rolling works of art. Attendees can head over to Sam Houston Park to enjoy music, family activities, food, and more throughout the day. Registration to ride in Art Bike Parade is open, and spectators are invited to observe and enjoy the parade for free.
