About

The Mississauga Santa Claus parade is moving to the downtown! Now happening in conjunction with the City’s annual Light Up the Square celebration on Saturday, November 22, the parade will make the downtown glow!

Festivities stretch beyond the parade route with the official lighting of the 35 ft. Christmas tree, live entertainment, family-friendly activities and holiday experiences across Celebration Square, Square One and surrounding streets.

Fittingly themed “Shine Bright, Sauga!”, this new evening parade invites participants to deck their floats or costumes with bright, colourful LEDs and shine a light on their culture, holiday traditions and proud community spirit.
