Baytown’s Christmas Parade is Thursday, December 4th! Experience the magic of community and tradition with holiday floats, parade cheers, and marching bands lighting up Town Square.

Dust off those boots and jingle those bells as the community comes together for this year’s theme, “Boots, Bells & Holiday Yells!”, bringing a playful Texas twist to the season with parade floats, marching bands, and festive fun for all, including an extended candy zone!

Parade Information at baytown.org/christmasparade

Volunteer at the Parade
Candy Zone Volunteers Needed (5:30 PM) — Join the fun by tossing candy to kids along the route and spreading smiles all around! Limited walking
Line-Up Volunteers Needed (4:30–9:30 PM) — Help parade participants find their spots and ensure a smooth, safe start to the festivities. Can’t make it right at 4:30 PM? No worries — if you can arrive by 5:15 PM, you can still join in! (We’ll have alternate parking for late arrivals.)
