What is the Parade of Homes?

An event, hosted by the Madison Area Builders Association, showcasing newly constructed homes built by local home builders and located throughout the capital region. In its simplest terms, the Parade of Homes is a coordinated event of Open Houses for newly constructed homes that would normally not be available to be seen. They provide the newest trends and technology from the the area's top builders and trade partners.

What types of homes will be featured?

Primarily new construction, single-family homes. Some years you may also see condominiums and remodeled homes. Included homes are various styles and price points, and many are open exclusively during the Parade of Homes.

What price points will the featured homes have?

The Fall Parade features a variety of price points varying from starter homes to multi-million dollar homes.

Where will the featured homes be located?

Most homes are located in Dane County, with a few located in surrounding counties.

In 2025 there are 2 featured neighborhoods -- Kilkenny Farms West in Waunakee and Windsor Gardens in Windsor/Sun Prairie. These neighborhoods have several homes to tour within walking distance.

The remaining homes are "scattered-site", meaning they are individual homes in various sought-after neighborhoods, including homes on Lake Mendota and Wisconsin.
