CSU’s trombone section will perform its signature “No. 5” during the parade. Grandstand tickets are available at DenverParadeofLights.com. “One of the goals of the CSU Marching Band is to entertain our audiences, wherever they are. The Parade of Lights is a great chance for us to connect with a huge crowd that we might not otherwise see, and to be part of a wonderful holiday tradition in Denver,” said Richard Frey, the band’s director. “Simply put, it’s a fun way to kick off the holiday season and bring a little musical joy to people from all over Denver and throughout Colorado.” 9News will broadcast the parade from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. Friday.
