Location
Floats for the parade will enter the Marshalling Area at Minet's Point & Lakeshore between 2pm and 4pm the day of the parade. The float order will be determined by the order of arrival. Bands will be inserted into the parade as appropriate to ensure they are spaced well. The parade itself will depart from Tiffin and Lakeshore, heading straight up Tiffin to Bradford Street, then North on Bradford to Dunlop, then through Downtown Barrie, where we will be part of the Downtown Barrie Tree Lighting festivities!

The only commercial vehicles that will be permitted to participate in the parade are those actually pulling the floats; no stand-alone vans, trucks, etc.

This year's parade is scheduled for 5pm on Saturday, November 18, 2017. The theme will be Musical Madness. We're excited to see all the creative ways that our floats bring Christmas songs to life!
We will be traveling the same route again this year, departing from Tiffin and Lakeshore, heading straight up Tiffin to Bradford Street. We will then head North on Bradford to Dunlop, then through Downtown Barrie, where we will be part of the Downtown Barrie Tree Lighting festivities!
