The most jolly parade in West Michigan!
Santa Claus arrives in Downtown Holland during the annual Parade of Lights, escorted by 90 floats, commercial vehicles, walkers, and marching bands…all decked out from top to bottom in thousands of sparkling lights! Come see why this brightly lit holiday procession on Tuesday, December 3 is fun for the entire family and a holiday tradition for the entire community!
The Parade of Lights will begin at the corner of 8th Street and Columbia Avenue at 6:30 pm sharp and proceed west down 8th Street until it reaches the Holland Civic Center Place at 150 West 8th Street, home of the Holiday Kerstmarkt!
8th Street will be closed for the Parade of Lights beginning at 2:00 pm on December 3, but free public parking can be found in the parking lots on 7th and 9th Streets, in the 7th and 9th Street Parking Decks and at the Holland Civic Center Place.
