Santa Clause Parade
December 1 @ 2:00 PM
Santa Claus is coming to town on a new route for 2024! Due to road construction happening along the existing parade route, the City of Burlington must change the route for 2024. This also presents an opportunity to make the route shorter, which is something many residents have requested.
- The road closure will be roughly 3 kms in length (previously 4.5 kms) with the parade route starting at the Central Hub (Teen Tour Way).
- The marshalling area will extend to Guelph Line on New Street
- The parade will end on Brant Street at Blairholm Avenue, with the dismantling zone moving onto private property
- The road closure ending at Ghent Avenue.
The new route will improve efficiency and will be less impactful to Burlington residents and businesses surrounding Guelph Line and Prospect Street.
