Jonesborough: Christmas Parade

Jonesborough Christmas Parade Call For Entries

Christmas is fast-approaching and the Town of Jonesborough is gearing up for another festive season.  Christmas provides the perfect opportunity to celebrate all things near and dear to us and to spend time with all of our loved ones.  What better opportunity to spend time with family and friends than to grab a cup of hot chocolate, throw on mittens and hats and gather on Main Street in downtown Jonesborough to watch the annual lighted nighttime Christmas Parade.

The Town of Jonesborough is proud to be hosting the 2019 Jonesborough Christmas Parade.  The Special Event Committee is requesting floats and entries be decorated around the Christmas holiday theme.  Entries are now being accepted for the parade and special interest lies in entries that contain:  live Christmas music, floats lit with Christmas lights, horses (only those that are well-controlled in large crowd situations) and antique cars. The parade will begin at 6:00pm on Saturday, December 14^th on Boone Street and will progress to Main Street and Historic Downtown then end at the intersection at Washington Avenue.  Come enjoy the beautiful floats and entries in our unique nighttime parade among the whimsical lights and decorations of the season.

Additional information about the parade as well as registration information can be found at jonesboroughtn.org.  For additional information, please contact Rachel Conger:  rachelc@jonesboroughtn.org or 423.791.3869.

Be sure to stick around after the parade for Christmas In Olde Jonesborough when the shops in Historic Downtown Jonesborough stay open for extended holiday hours to help you enjoy the holidays in a relaxed, hometown atmosphere.  Children are encouraged to bring a new, unwrapped gift to be delivered to disadvantaged children in Washington County.
