Tips & Advice

  • Pick a spot on Maple Street, Jackson Street or Sunnybrook Road, because the square route through Old Town passes along all three.
  • Come out the night before as well for the Christmas Tree Lighting at the Plaza at Old Town Crossing, with music, dance performances and photos with Santa and Mrs. Claus.
  • Dress warmly, because this is an evening parade and you'll be standing outside along the Old Town streets the whole time.
  • Look for the Winter Wonderland theme this year as the bands, local businesses and community organizations come through Old Town behind the Mayor and Aldermen.
