INDIANAPOLIS (WTHR) - The 500 Festival announced the theme for the 2018 IPL 500 Festival Parade: Illuminate. Innovate. Indianapolis.
The theme was inspired by two goals and trends.
500 Festival president and CEO Bob Bryant explains "illuminate," "Not only does our title sponsor IPL illuminate Indy every single day – and as a sponsor since the very first Parade in 1957 – but together we can highlight Indy’s commitment to innovation through this year’s celebration. It’s sure to be a spectacular occasion as we put Indy center stage and light it up for the world to take notice.”
Parade organizers chose "innovate" to showcase the the growth in the technology industry Indianapolis has experienced over the years.
The 62nd IPL 500 Festival Parade is set for Saturday, May, 26.
If you can't make it downtown, you can watch it right here on WTHR-TV.
