Fireworks Display After The Parade!
This year, the Parade of Lights will not only be lighting up the streets of Winchester, we will be lighting up the sky!
There will be a 6–8 minutes Christmas-themed fireworks display behind the arena following the parade!
While the parade will still officially end at the arena (and Santa will be getting off his sleigh to take in the show), floats will be directed to Dawley Drive.
Shop local at our Vendor Show
Our Vendor Show brings together a variety of local crafters, artisans and other vendors.
It’s a great way to get some Christmas shopping done and support local vendors at the same time.
Admission is free. We will be accepting monetary or food donations for Community Food Share.
