We are excited to invite you to participate in the Merry on Main Lighted Christmas Night Parade, taking place on Saturday December 5, 2026. Join us for a festive evening full of holiday cheer! The parade will begin promptly at 6:00 PM, and we would love for you to be a part of the celebration!

Parade entries will begin lining up at 2:00 PM starting on Stadium Drive and judging will start at 5:00 PM.

We ask that all participants please allow adequate time for line- up and be prepared for the judges to make their assessment. Shortly thereafter, parade participant winners will be presented with their award.

EVERYONE MUST DISEMBARK AT THE DISEMBARK POINT, NO ONE IS ALLOWED TO DISEMBARK EARLY. Disembark for all floats will be at the end of the River Park towards Adams street, there will be guides to assist you with the disembark process.

All parents of the participants for the floats will need to be parked at the parking lot near the disembark point ready to pick up their children. For safety reasons we do not want floats traveling on city streets after the Parade, all children must be picked up from disembark point.
