Celebrate the magic of the season

Always the first Saturday in December.

Event Info

Date:

Saturday, December 7, 2024

Time:

7:00 pm

Location:

Winchester, Ontario

Note: Parade ends at arena

The parade now ends at the Sam Ault Arena, instead of Dawley Drive.

Our float participants have been requesting this for several years. Floats will be given the option to either enter the arena lot through the exit lane, or they can continue down Main Street.

There will be NO PUBLIC PARKING at the arena during the parade.

 

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.
