54th Annual Holiday Parade

to
Downtown Schenectady 432 State Street, Schenectady, NY 12302

Ring in the Holiday season in Downtown Schenectady at the 54th Annual Holiday Parade Presented by the City and County of Schenectady and sponsored by MVP Healthcare.

Enjoy the northeast's largest night-time holiday parade and usher in the holiday season with this storied holiday tradition. Experience the magic of the holidays with sparkling floats, glittering firetrucks, marching bands, dance troupes, and Santa Claus - fun for the whole family!

Be in a New York State of Mind this holiday season! Let's celebrate the best of what makes New York and Schenectady County a great place to live, work, and play. There is so much to discover, from the snow-capped Adirondacks to the bright lights of Broadway, all the villages, towns, and cities along the banks of the Erie Canal, and everything in between.
