IMPORTANT NOTICE: It is with great disappointment that the Santa Claus Parade is cancelled due to the declaration of a weather event and unsafe weather conditions. Public safety is our #1 priority. Unfortunately the parade cannot be rescheduled due to the massive amount of scheduling to coordinate 90 floats and road closures. We encourage all residents to please avoid any unnecessary travel until weather conditions improve. |
Burlington's annual Santa Claus Parade features bands, colourful floats, mascots, and jolly old Saint Nick himself.
Cancelled due to extreme weather. Sunday, Dec. 1, 2019 at 2 p.m. in Downtown Burlington
