Get ready for a blockbuster holiday evening in Wiggins! On Saturday, December 6 at 5 PM, downtown will roll out the red carpet for the annual Christmas Parade. Twinkling lights, cheerful floats and festive cheer will set the scene for a night the whole family can enjoy.
Leading this year’s parade is Grand Marshal Lyndy Berryhill, whose love for the community adds extra sparkle to the event. The theme, “Christmas Movies,” brings your favorite films to life along the parade route. From classic characters to creative floats inspired by seasonal favorites, it’s your chance to walk right into the magic of the movies.
Before the first float rolls, downtown comes alive with holiday magic! After the parade concludes and the official tree lighting takes place, Santa’s Village will open—where families can meet St. Nick, enjoy sweet treats and snap their own red-carpet-worthy photos.
