Posted/updated on: November 18, 2020 at 11:03 am
TYLER — The 2020 Rotary Clubs of Tyler Christmas Parade has been announced and thanks to the pandemic, it will look a little different. New this year is the parade format and extended route. The Rotary Clubs of Tyler will host a reverse parade with entrants remaining static and parked along the parade route, while attendees walk or drive along the route. This year’s parade theme is “Together, We are Rose City Strong.” The drive-thru event is free and will be held in downtown Tyler at 10:00 am on Saturday, December 5th. So far, there are over 60 entries, with a limit of 80 due to social distancing guidelines. Late registration is open. $50 for commercial entries and $30 for non-commercial entries. No fee for first responders.
Participants can enter on Event Bright. Winners will be selected in six categories: Best Holiday Theme, Best Band, Most Interactive Entry, Spirit Award, Most Creative Entry and Best Decorated Vehicle. This will be the Rotary’s 5th year hosting the Christmas parade.
