40th Annual Santa’s Wonderland and Winter Festival Parade

Experience the enchantment of the holiday season at Santa’s Wonderland & Winter Festival Parade in Colonial Beach! Town Hill, located at the corner of Colonial and Washington Avenues, transforms into a magical Christmas wonderland adorned with twinkling lights, festive Christmas trees, whimsical elves, and cheerful snowmen. The festivities kick off with a procession of beautifully decorated cars, golf carts, and floats, all leading up to the grand entrance of everyone’s favorite jolly old soul – Santa Claus himself!

Get ready for a holly, jolly time filled with delightful activities. Warm up with a cup of hot chocolate, decorate scrumptious cookies, create holiday-themed arts and crafts, cozy up by the fire pit, and let the melodies of Christmas music fill the air. Explore vendor tents for unique gifts and indulge in delicious treats. Don’t miss your chance to write heartfelt letters to Santa and, of course, have your picture taken with Mr. and Mrs. Claus, spreading holiday cheer to kids and kids-at-heart alike. Santa’s Wonderland and Winter Festival Parade is a joyful way to kick off the holiday season, and it takes place on the first Saturday of December. Don’t miss out on this festive celebration!
