Kick off the holiday season with one of Woodstock's favorite traditions! Join us the Sunday after Thanksgiving for Woodstock's Annual Christmas Parade as the community comes together to celebrate the magic of the season.
Enjoy festive floats, local businesses, community organizations, and plenty of holiday cheer as the parade makes its way through downtown Woodstock. And, of course, no Christmas parade would be complete without a special appearance by Santa and Mrs. Claus!
Bring your family, bundle up, and join us on the Historic Woodstock Square for a wonderful start to the holiday season!
The parade begins at the Woodstock Water Works parking lot, travels east along Jackson Street, continues through the Historic Woodstock Square, and exits along Cass Street.
Parade begins on the Square at 2:00 PM.
In the event of severe weather, a decision to cancel the parade will be made by 11:00 AM on parade day. Any cancellation announcements will be posted on our website and Facebook page.
If no cancellation notice is posted, the parade is on! Please check these channels for updates rather than calling the Chamber office.
Contact the Woodstock Area Chamber of Commerce & Industry at (815) 338-2436 or email chamber@woodstockilchamber.com.
We can't wait to celebrate the holiday season with you in downtown Woodstock!
