In Brazil, for Carnival they actually do charge for the big parades. However; Access is generally limited and the neighborhoods blocked off. bleachers are installed and concession stands and toilets are provided. At the Rose parade, the parade is free but many people charge for seating and great locations that are owned by private people.
You must remember that many parades are in neighborhoods that are heavily populated. How are you going to charge someone for going to their house. Just because a parade is going bye? It could happen in the U.S. but not any time soon.

The reason why they cannot charge for citizens to watch parades is because parades uses streets which are funded by the public. The citizens pay to use the street/street repair by paying taxes.

They could but it would be hard because it's held in public so what do you do with the people watching from/in buildings. It's kind of like charging people who live in a building over looking a baseball field do you charge them for watching a baseball game.

The gov't or a private company COULD, except that parades are usually held in public places.
