The City of Watertown will hold its annual Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting on Friday, December 6, 2024, beginning at 6:00pm.
The holiday festivities will begin with Mayor Compo-Pierce and members of the City Council officially kicking off the holiday season with a countdown to light the City’s Christmas tree in front of City Hall.
Directly following the Tree Lighting, the Parade will travel along Washington Street from Green Street to Stone Street. Viewers will be able to enjoy the parade from both sides of Washington Street along the route.
New this year! After the parade, meet Santa in the lobby of City Hall.
Registration for parade participation is now open! If interested, please call 315- 755-6475 or email parksrec@watertown-ny.gov .
All vehicles and floats must be decorated for the holiday season and lit with holiday lights. Candy may be handed out during the event but should not be thrown from the vehicle or float in order to avoid viewers entering the roadway.
