The Lighted Christmas Parade Committee met following a successful 2017 parade and set the theme for the 31st annual Main Street Lighted Christmas Parade to be held on Thursday, November 29, 2018. Following an extensive survey the parade will be on Thursday only and the theme will be “Sights & Sounds of Christmas”. The committee invites entrants to think of their favorite holiday movies, stories, music or iconic holiday images.
Thursday, Nov. 29 will be the day that encompasses many events. Events will begin at noon in the Penn Central Mall with vendors, music, fun activities for children, Festival of Trees Silent Auction, and more new exciting events for 2018. Gospel and other live music performances will take place before and after the parade.
As before, many events are held throughout Oskaloosa in conjunction with the Lighted Parade. As you begin plans for related activities, please contact the Main Street Office to have these events placed in the Holiday Happenings brochure. Many volunteers are needed to make the event a success. If you would like to be a part of the planning contact the Main Street office of the Oskaloosa Area Chamber and Development Group at 641-672-2591 or email to oskycofc@oacdg.org. Be a part of Iowa’s #1 Holiday Event.
