The family-centered Holiday Parade is back, and will be even bigger and better this year! The parade will start from The French Market with an extended route through Downtown, and will end with a post-parade holiday experience and concert in Lafayette Square!
The Parade Formation Area is in the heart of the Marigny on Elysian Fields
The world class Children’s Hospital New Orleans Holiday Parade made its debut in 2022, in partnership with Kern Studios, the Downtown Development District New Orleans, WDSU, NewOrleans.com, and many other parade partners! Thousands of parade-goers will line the streets of downtown New Orleans to enjoy the 2nd annual event, which benefits the vital mission of Children’s Hospital, on Saturday, December 2. The parade will feature local and national television coverage, 30 holiday-themed floats, high flying helium balloons, more than a dozen dancing groups and marching bands, and a post-parade After Party with live entertainment in Lafayette Square to kick off the holiday season in New Orleans. You won’t want to miss it!
