Santa Claus Parade and Council’s Starry Night postponed due to extreme cold

The Santa Claus Parade and Council’s Starry Night will not proceed today, Saturday, Dec 6. Both events have been postponed due to the extreme cold. Current temperatures pose safety risks for attendees, float participants, volunteers, and event staff. 

The Municipality will reassess conditions on Sunday, Dec 7, and make a decision at that time about whether the events can proceed. If they do proceed, they will take place at the same scheduled time on Sunday, Dec 7.   

Thank you for your understanding. We know this change affects our float registrants, families,  children, volunteers, Santa’s elves and so many others who help bring the parade to life. We’re hopeful we can come together tomorrow, weather permitting.
