Buffalo Christmas Parade Presented by Joe's Hardware
"The Reason For The Season"
Description
Joe's Hardware is honored to announce that we will organize the Buffalo Christmas Parade this year, continuing a tradition the Buffalo Area Chamber of Commerce has upheld for over 50 years.
First and foremost, we want the community to know that the parade will continue along the same route everyone knows and loves. We are excited to help keep this wonderful tradition alive while adding a few special touches of our own. One change we're especially excited about is that this year's parade will be held in the evening!
The parade will take place on Saturday, December 12th. The parade lineup will begin at 4:00 PM, with the parade stepping off at 5:30 PM, allowing everyone to enjoy the magic of Christmas lights after dark.
There will be NO entry fee to participate in the parade. We want to make it easy for businesses, churches, organizations, schools, clubs, families, and community members to join in the fun.
Before the parade begins, several local churches will be on hand offering refreshments and fellowship as we gather together to celebrate the Christmas season as a community.
More information will be released as Christmas approaches, including details on parade registration, entry forms, float participation, lineup instructions, and everything you'll need to know to be part of this year's event.
We are excited to serve our community in this new role and look forward to making this year's Buffalo Christmas Parade a memorable celebration for everyone. Stay tuned for more details, and start planning those floats!
