🎄✨ Get ready to unwrap the magic of the season at our spectacular Downtown Racine Holiday Parade and Tree-Lighting Ceremony on Saturday, November 8, 2025 🎅🌟
The pre-festivities kick off at 4:30 pm with jolly carolers spreading holiday cheer, serenading us with Christmas favorites on Monument Square. Then, at 5:30 pm, join us at the West side of the State Street bridge as the parade sets off, winding its merry way down Main Street to 6th Street, and dancing through the streets until it reaches the dazzling City Hall by 6:45 pm.
But the excitement doesn't end there! At 6:50 pm, head to Monument Square for some more carolers, and the enchanting Tree-Lighting Ceremony. The man in red, Santa Claus and Mrs. Claus, will work their magic, illuminating our Holiday Tree in a burst of festive brilliance!
🎶 Throughout the evening, holiday singers and entertainment will serenade the streets with festive tunes, creating a magical atmosphere before and after the parade. Back for the 4th year, we have a small fireworks display after the tree lighting, adding that extra spark to our celebration!
Parking: No need to worry about finding a spot. Park at the Lake Avenue Ramp (300 Lake Avenue), Civic Centre Ramp (501 Lake Avenue), McMynn Ramp (120 7th Street), or Shoop Ramp (State & Main) for just $3.50 all day!
