Registration has begun for Richardson’s 53rd Annual Christmas Parade, to be held Saturday, Dec. 6. This year’s parade theme is “Holidays Around the World,” a redo of last year’s theme due to the weather-related cancellation of the 2024 parade. Individuals and groups are encouraged to interpret the theme with costumes, vehicles, pets and floats.
This year’s parade will be held on the east side of Richardson along Plano Road near Huffhines Park. The entry fee is $25 for individuals/organizations and $100 for businesses, plus a new, unwrapped toy (multiple toy donations are encouraged for groups). The event benefits Network of Community Ministries.
The registration form and parade rules can be found online. Deadline for registration is 11:59 p.m. Monday, Nov. 24. Friends of the Parade VIP tickets are also on sale and receive reserved parking and seating, as well as complimentary hot cocoa, breakfast goodies and other refreshments.
