The Parade

The Christmas Parade of Lights has been organized under the Rotary leadership since 1995. The parade is a lovely event focused on the holidays and spirit of giving. Participants should look at any rules and regulations before submitting an application to ensure a safe, fun and happy night.

Street Closures

With the size and growth of this wonderful event, streets will be shut down to ensure a safe and fun evening. For a full list and detailed map of street closures, check the route of the parade and see where the floats will be lining up and which corners will be blocked off.

Past Parades

In the beginning, and for many years, the Christmas Parade was organized and run by the Lions Club of Santa Maria, and went under the Santa Maria Rotary Club's guidance in 1995. The parade has a long history of giving and fun. Check out photos of prior parades and see what we're all about.
