The following is a release from the City of Burlington
The Santa Claus parade is returning to downtown Burlington Sunday, Dec. 7, from 2-4 p.m.
The parade will feature floats, community groups, costumed characters, the Burlington Teen Tour Band, Junior Redcoats and other marching bands. As always, Santa will be the grand finale of the parade.
The parade will start at 2 p.m. at the corner of Drury Lane and New Street and will make its way downtown along New Street. The parade then travels north on Brant Street and finishes at St. John the Baptist Church on Brant Street at Blairholm Avenue.
Roads will close at varying times along the route and will re-open shortly after the final float has moved through and a clean-up has been completed. For the most updated information including the full parade route, visit Burlington.ca/Parade.
Residents living in the parade area are encouraged to plan ahead as there will be detours and delays.
Children are encouraged to bring letters for Santa, which will be collected by letter carriers from Canada Post along the parade route or dropped in area mailboxes. The Burlington Oldtimers Hockey Club will be collecting non-perishable food and monetary donations.
Many local businesses have contributed to the success of this year’s parade. The City recognizes its Star Supporters for their exceptional contributions: BUNZL, Rocca Sisters, and Elevate and Co Realty, and extends sincere thanks to the in-kind sponsors, JKM Towing, Attridge Transportation, and King Paving, for their essential operational support. A complete list of contributing sponsors is available at Burlington.ca/Parade.
