Description

'Tis the season to bundle up and join the Bigfork Holiday Parade of Lights! This year’s theme, Let it Snow, is inspired by the Bigfork Playhouse Children’s Theatre’s production of White Christmas. The parade will light up downtown Bigfork on the first Saturday of December.  Parade line up will be in the school bus parking on Grand, across from Marina Cay.

Bring the family to stroll around our charming Christmas Village, visit local shops, and grab a hot drink before finding a cozy spot for the parade. The magic begins at 6:00 pm and wraps up with a special arrival of Santa at the Bigfork Center for the Performing Arts. Santa will be available for photos until 8:00 pm, so don’t forget to bring your camera to capture the memories!

The Parade of Lights is a cherished, small-town celebration, and we hope everyone enjoys a safe and family-friendly evening. Please note that roads will be closed starting at 5:30pm. 

Parade Rules:

• This is a non-partisan community event. The organizers reserve the right to remove any person or float deemed political or offensive.
• Items may not be thrown from floats, but walkers are welcome to hand out goodies or gently toss them towards spectators’ feet.
• Confetti is not allowed, as it leaves a lasting mark on our village. Floats breaking this rule will be responsible for cleanup.
• Parade lineup starts at 5:00 pm at the school bus parking area on Grand Avenue, and the parade begins at 6:00 pm. Lineup is first-come, first-served, with no placeholders.
• Animals and livestock are welcome at the end of the parade, but please provide cleanup walkers.

Join us for a night filled with lights, joy, and festive cheer as we celebrate Bigfork’s Christmas spirit!
