Starry Night Christmas Parade

Starry Night Christmas Parade

The Downtown Lenoir Starry Night Christmas Parade is a much-loved holiday tradition in the city. University and high school bands march and perform, numerous community groups and businesses enter floats, and Santa visits every year!

All parade applications must be submitted online! One application per vehicle even if you are entering more than one vehicle in the parade! Each vehicle application must have Driver’s Name, Driver’s License Number & a copy of the Driver’s License in order to complete. Please ensure the driver’s info matches with the vehicle they will be driving in the Parade.


Theme

The theme this year is “A World of Holiday Wonder.” Are sleigh bells ringing? Is there a snowman in the meadow. Are you snuggling by a fire? Decorate your floats and vehicles with snowy hometown nostalgia.
