A parade flag features broad horizontal or vertical stripes designed to catch the wind during public marches and official ceremonies. Attached securely to a portable flagpole, this banner represents unified groups, civic organizations, or celebratory events. Flags play a central visual role in guiding formations and marking special occasions during city parades.
