The Greater Rochester Chamber of Commerce is pleased to announce plans for its annual holiday parade with the theme this year of “A Rock & Roll Christmas”.

Generously underwritten by Service Credit Union, Rochester’s holiday parade is scheduled to be held on Sunday, December 4, 2022, beginning at 3:00 pm. The parade will feature an array of floats, high school marching bands, marching units, mobile units, and equestrian units.

Those entering floats are encouraged to decorate their entry in keeping with the theme. Floats that are lined up in the assembly area by 1:00pm will be judged on theme, creativity, craftsmanship, and overall appearance with plaques awarded for “Best of Parade, Second Place, and Third Place. New this year will be a “People’s Choice” award, which will be awarded after the parade; more details will be available at a later date on the Chamber’s website.

The parade route will begin on Wakefield Street by the triangle at the entrance to Spaulding High School. It will proceed south on Wakefield Street, turn right onto Union Street, turn left onto North Main Street to South Main Street, and disband in front of the Rochester Common.

Thousands of individuals participate in Rochester’s Holiday Parade each year and thousands view the parade as spectators during the parade and via video replay throughout the holiday season.
