The Annual Parade features thousands of sparkling lights. Parade entrants must utilize lights in their designs to compete and win contest categories ranging from equestrian to marching band to float.

Pacific Grove is special any time of the year but during one special season it transforms into a fantastical lighted paradise with a night time parade featuring lighted holiday floats. This is a parade that you won't forget. Perhaps you can try to capture in a bottle but that probably won't work.

The usual marching bands, dance teams, equestrian groups and Santa Claus provide the stuff of holiday dreams and traditions, but the setting--beautiful Pacific Grove makes the event so very special. Come capture the magic!

After the parade, stores will remain open for holiday shopping, wagon rides, photos with Santa and carolers.

For another great holiday event be sure to visit Pacific Grove and enjoy the Annual Tree Lighting!
