Bring the kids, charge your batteries, and march to the musical orders of Mariachi Rey Azteca, Baltimore Twilighters Marching Band, N Full Motion Marching Band, 901 Arts Drumline, Manly Deeds, Tongue N Cheek, Bateria Terra Maria and Morgan State University Drumline! Festival goers of all ages, community partners, and BOPA-commissioned Light City artists are strongly encouraged to create their own illuminated costumes, as well as carry their pre-made lanterns, to parade together!
