Christmas Parade Registration

The 2025 Christmas Parade Registration is now closed. Please email programcoordinator@mainstreetdelaware.com with any questions!

We will have the one and only Santa at the end of the parade riding in a Horse Drawn Carriage. Help us keep the magic alive, and don’t dress as Santa.

Additional Items as you plan for the 2025 Parade:

  • With the 6 p.m. start time, there will be no walkers, other than the marching bands in our parade this year.
  • No candy or other items are to be thrown from the floats.
  • Floats must be appropriately lit with parking lights ON during the parade (headlights and high beams must remain OFF).
  • We will assign you a location in the parade line-up, so in order to participate you must pre-register here!
  • Vehicles and floats that will be in the parade will be asked to arrive at 3 p.m. the day of the parade.
  • Participants (walkers, float riders, dancers, etc.) will be asked to arrive at 4 p.m. the day of the parade.
  • No vehicles besides those that will be riding in the parade will be permitted into Mingo Park.
  • There will be a shuttle for parade participants beginning at 4 p.m. at the County Parking Lot at 145 N Union Street to ride into Mingo Park.
