Celebrate the magic of the season at the 79th Annual Fort Mill Christmas Parade!
This beloved holiday tradition will fill Historic Downtown Fort Mill with festive sights and sounds as the parade makes its way from Tom Hall and Unity Street, through Main Street and North White Street, and ends at Walter Elisha Park.
Enjoy a joyful lineup of local schools, officials, churches, businesses, scouts, pageant queens, community groups—and of course, Santa Claus himself!
This year’s parade will be led by our Grand Marshal and filmed for Comporium Channel 705, with live coverage in front of the Fort Mill Fire Station at 121 Tom Hall Street. Emcees will announce each entry as they pass by, and our Parade Judges will select winners in categories including:
