Main Street St. Charles is the setting for this family favorite holiday event. The Santa Parade features all of the Christmas Tradition characters, carolers, and a cavalcade of international Santas, each carrying the flag of their native land.
The grand finale of the parade is the arrival of Santa and Mrs. Claus in a horse-drawn carriage. The parade begins at 1000 South Main Street and continues to the Jaycee Stage in Frontier Park, where a short, family friendly program will take place.
The parade begins at 1:30 p.m. on Saturdays and Sundays in December through Dec. 23.
