Who makes the festival
Nobody is paid to put this on. These are the organizations that host it, the ones that make it possible, and the children's charity that receives what it raises.
The three organizations that run it
Davis Odd Fellows Lodge #169
The Davis Odd Fellows Lodge #169 has hosted the Zombie Bike Parade Festival since it began. Chartered in 1870, the Lodge is Davis' oldest continually operating organization, with more than 400 members open to all.
The Bike Campaign
The Bike Campaign, founded in 2011 by Maria Contreras Tebbutt, makes cycling available to everyone, including children with disabilities and seniors, through its Bike Garage locations in Davis and Woodland.
Davis Bike Club
Davis Bike Club has organized recreational and competitive cycling in Yolo County since 1979 and joined as a host of the festival starting in 2024.
Where the money goes
And the ones who make it possible
City of Davis
The City of Davis partners on route permitting, Bike Loop signage and the Community Park Bike Pump Track, and named the festival a Best Event in Yolo County.
Visit Yolo
Visit Yolo (Visit Davis) promotes the Zombie Bike Parade Festival to visitors as one of Davis' signature Halloweekend events.
Hallmark Properties
Hallmark Properties, led by Lawson and Marianne Youmans, has been a top sponsor since 2021, funding the Skydance Skydiving grand finale and other festival highlights.
Action Flipbooks
Roaming photographers and the 360 degree video booth at the festival, and the reason a good share of the photographs on this site exist. They have covered the parade for years.
Every sponsor of the 2026 festival is on the sponsors page, and the people who actually build it are on the team page.
