The theme of this year’s parade is “A Holiday Tradition,” honoring our 40 years of producing the parade and the tradition it has become for so many. The Parade is open and free for all ages to enjoy. The route is 1.2 miles long and begins promptly at 6pm starting at Livingston & 2nd Street marching east along 2nd Street turning around at Bay Shore Avenue and returning back to Livingston.

The parade will be live streamed, with special guest EmCee Bob Goen.
Filmed by Grant White Productions and hosted with emcee’s and announcers. Home viewers can visit belmontshore.org to watch the parade in real time.

All of your favorites will be returning like the Royal Syncopated Drum Corps and the Corgis as well as many new fun surprise entries. The parade features over 100 entries, including floats designed by Long Beach businesses and organizations, marching bands, drill teams, local personalities, city officials and dignitaries. It’s a holiday spectacle not to be missed.

And of course, no Christmas Parade would be complete without an appearance by good ole’ St. Nick!
