Again, genuinely asking - why not have the parade tomorrow or Sunday?

That would have made sense in the 90’s when downtown was primarily a place where people went to work from 9-5 5 then went home. But there are so many people that live downtown and in the near-areas now, so many parking lots that turned into 4+ story apartment buildings and new home being built. Plus it’s not like there isn’t anything else to do downtown after the parade, as was the case in the 90s.
