The parade starts at 9:30 a.m. on Fayetteville Street at Davie, goes north on Fayetteville, west on Morgan, north on Salisbury and east on Edenton, ending at Wilmington Street. It ends with a Capitol ceremony at 11 a.m.
Raleigh police have blocked several side streets that are not included on the parade route.
