Tips & Advice

  • Dress warmly in layers for the outdoor parade, since waiting along the route can feel chilly in late-November weather.
  • Arrive early to choose a comfortable viewing spot and avoid needing to move through spectators once the procession begins.
  • Bring a camera or phone to capture the illuminated parade, and consider checking your battery before heading out.
  • Keep children close while watching the procession, especially if you are standing among other spectators.
