Staunton Christmas Parade

The Staunton Downtown Development Association (SDDA) is pleased to announce that plans are currently underway for the 202 Staunton Christmas Parade, Monday, November 27 at 7:00PM in downtown Staunton, sponsored by Columbia Gas of Virginia.

The SDDA Promotions Committee has selected “A Cozy Christmas” as the theme for the 2023 Staunton Christmas Parade.

The Staunton Christmas Parade is organized by the SDDA with support from the Staunton Kiwanis Club. As marshals of the parade, the Staunton Kiwanis Club members coordinate the pre-parade line-up. They also help with keeping the parade moving and on schedule.

The parade begins with an official ribbon cutting with a few special holiday friends at the corner of Frederick and New streets in downtown Staunton. SDDA recently received a letter from Santa & Mrs. Claus. The letter told us that they are eagerly awaiting their return once again to Staunton for the holiday season. Santa’s float is once again sponsored by McKee Foods and is being led through downtown by Bobby’s Towing Service Inc. The inclement weather date for the Staunton Christmas parade has been set for Monday, December 4, 2023.
