Main Street Vineland is busy working on the annual Main Street Vineland Christmas Parade, to take place on Saturday, November 30 (rain date: Sunday, December 1), at 5 p.m., on Landis Avenue, in Vineland.
A longtime Vineland holiday tradition, the parade will have as its major sponsor this year Friends
of Michael Testa Jr. for State Senate. Newfield National Bank will be the supporting sponsor.

It will have the theme this year of simply “Christmas”, allowing participants to interpret for
themselves what brings them joy at Christmas time, and will again feature a contest for the best
floats. Trophies will be awarded to the first, second, and third place winners in both the “Large
Float” and “Petite Float” categories.
The parade will proceed through the downtown toward Myrtle Street and will have 100 or more
participants made up of floats, marching bands, walkers, autos, fire trucks and more.
Volunteers are currently being sought to help coordinate on the night of the parade and additional
parade sponsorship opportunities are also available.

Applications to be in the parade or to be a vendor can be obtained by clicking here or visit the Main Street Vineland website, where the rules and regulations can also be reviewed and
printed out. To be a participant in the parade, applications must be completed online.
Registration for parade participants is free and all registrations may apply at online
and must be received by Wednesday November 27th. Registration is required to participate
in the parade and no registrations will be allowed the night of the parade.

Everyone is urged—after the turkey, football, Black Friday, and Small Business Saturday
shopping—to come out and enjoy the fun.

“The Christmas Parade continues to be one of our biggest downtown events of the year and we
aim to make each year’s parade the best one yet,” said Main Street Vineland Executive Director
Russell Swanson. “We are looking forward to making this one, as usual, a great parade—full of
holiday cheer to the entire family—and a great time on The Ave.”
