Description
One of Wilmington’s most cherished holiday traditions will be returning to Rodney Square on Saturday, November 30th.
For 60 years, the Wilmington Jaycee’s Annual Christmas Parade has ushered in the holiday season with festive floats, live music, antique cars, local celebrities, and other merry delights.
Of course, no Christmas parade would be complete without the arrival of Saint Nick! Each year, children are encouraged to bring letters for Santa Claus and hand them off during the parade. (Children should provide their complete mailing address – including zip code – if they would like a reply.) The Wilmington Jaycees will work with Santa and his elves to make every effort to answer each letter.
The 60th Annual Wilmington Jaycee’s Christmas Parade starts at 11:00 a.m. at 2nd & Market St. and ends at 11th & Market St. near Rodney Square.
