Parade Organizers Issue Reminders

The 60th Annual Saint John Santa Claus Parade is coming up tomorrow and organizers have a few reminders for you.

You are asked to bring a grocery bag with non-perishable food for the Community Food Bank.   City workers will collect the donations along the route right before the parade starts.

NBCC students and staff will be picking up gently used coats along the parade route to be donated to the Coats for Kids campaign.

All children should bring their letters for Santa and make sure to include your home address.

Motorists should be aware all four lanes of the causeway will be blocked off starting at 3:30pm on Saturday for parade line-up.


Yous are asked to not park on King Street beginning at 5 pm.
Any vehicles parked anywhere along the parade route after 5:30 p.m. will be towed.

The Parade will leave the Causeway, go onto Union St., left on Sydney St., right on King’s Square North, left on Charlotte St., down King St. and on to St. Patrick, on to Main St., right on Lansdowne Ave., and right at Wellesley Blvd.  These streets will be closed off during the parade.
