The Children’s Museum has a new float for the 500 Festival Parade

INDIANAPOLIS (WISH) – Officials announced Monday The Children’s Museum 500 Festival float will be in the parade after all.

A new float had to be designed after a fire on May 12 at EXPO Design caused significant damage to the original float.

The Children’s Museum’s new float for the IPL 500 Festival Parade draws its inspiration from their new Hot Wheels: Race to Win Exhibit, featuring an IndyCar racing down the Hot Wheels orange track.

The float will be similar in size as the others participating in this year’s parade.

The 2015 IPL 500 Festival Parade will take place on Saturday, May 23.
