23rd Annual Sarasota Holiday Parade
Sat Dec 1, 7:00 PM - Sat Dec 1, 9:00 PM

High school marching bands, area churches and nonprofits, local businesses...and of course the big finale - the arrival of Santa Claus - make this a beloved kick-off of the holiday season.

Join thousands of spectators along Main Street in downtown Sarasota. Bring your own chairs and sit anywhere along the parade route, which is from 301/Washington Blvd to Gulfstream Ave. Arrive early and bring the whole family to this treasured community tradition!

We recommend parking at the Palm Ave or State Street Garages, which will cost a flat rate fee of $5.
