Each year we have a theme.    Some of the themes so far have been as follows:

2006 – Music

2007 – CLANE -  OUR  GREEN  VILLAGE

2009 – THE LAND OF MYTHS AND LEGENDS

2010 – THE  SOUND  OF  MUSIC

2011 – OUR  PAST,  OUR  PRESENT  AND  OUR  FUTURE

In 2007 to coincide with the launch of the Book “Clane, The Village We Knew” written by Bryan Sammon, Liam Burke and Paddy Behan, we had a special Float in the Parade re-living this era.

In 2008,  the floats were so entertaining with colour, music, drama etc. that it took a full hour to come down the main street.
