Polar Parade 2022 - Santa's Coming to Town
POLAR PARADE - DECEMBER 10, 2022
You've had an exciting afternoon at the Hometown Holiday Festival. What better way to shut the night down than with the Polar Parade, welcoming the big man, himself!
This year's theme is "blast from the past." Join us in bringing the Spirit of Christmas alive with parade float entries from around the region, themed to some of your favourite retro Christmas decor and movies. The parade would not be complete without the man himself, Santa! See his rosy red cheeks and thick white beard nestled atop his roaring belly as he brings our parade to a close. Where better to see the Spirit of Christmas than in Barrhead!
EVENT INFO & PARADE ROUTE
Join us on Saturday, December 10, at 5:00 pm as the parade kicks off on 50 Ave.
