General

The parade goes along the appropriate parade route, depending on which starting point you choose. After about 30 minutes, each of the three parade parts enters the main parade route at
Østerågade/Ved Stranden. From there, the parade proceeds through the centre of Aalborg to the city park, Kildeparken, where the carnival celebration "Party in Kildeparken" continues until midnight.
