About the event

The Holiday Parade is a long-time tradition for the Billings community to usher in the holiday season on the Friday after Thanksgiving. With families gathered for the weekend to eat and shop, the Holiday Parade is a great way to celebrate the season by joining the community to see over 60 holiday floats decorated for the holiday theme with Santa riding as the parade finale.This year’s parade is presented by out team at the Downtown Billings Association and White Heating, Heenan & Cook, Seed of Life, Range Health, Miller Tourtlotte Law, Coca-Cola High Country, Valley Credit Union, Desert Mountain Broadcasting, and supported by Community Seven Television.

About the application

Each parade participant is given a line-up number that correlates with a spot in the staging area. The Block Captains help the parade participants find their place in the staging area and prepares them to start moving when the time is right. Block Captains will be outside in the elements and we strongly recommend wearing comfortable/warm clothes (preferably not black as it's dark and we want you to be easy to spot). Suggested items to wear and bring: Coat, gloves, comfortable and slip resistant shoes, head lamp/ flashlight. We will provide you with a flashlight if you need one and have reflective vests to help you be seen. We will have you meet at the Downtown Billings office to get your block assignments and paperwork and provide some basic "what to expect" orientation for our new Block Captains.

Terms & Conditions

- Volunteer must be able and willing to be outside in winter weather. - Volunteers are representatives of the Downtown Billings Alliance team and are asked to always remain kind and respectful to all persons. - Volunteers must be able to walk/wheel at least 3 city blocks.
