The 16th annual MAINx24 parade and street festival will take place on the Southside on Saturday.

From the pancake breakfast to waffle bars and plenty of local crafts, sales, music, and even an adult Big Wheel race there is something for everyone. 

The highlight of the 24-hour-long festival is Chattanooga's biggest parade, the MAINx24 EPB Southside Parade at 10:30 a.m. on Main Street. 

Once again this year, Chattanooga Football Club and the entire CFC family of organizations will participate in the parade. 

MAINx24 EPB Southside Parade, Main Street, 10:30 a.m. is the highlight of MAINx24. View the parade on Main Street starting at the Corner of Main and Jefferson Street and traveling west on Main Street to Broad Street.
