FULL EVENTS CALENDAR

Annual Holiday Parade

We host our annual Holiday Parade on the first Saturday of December every year. This event is a super sweet celebration of our community and the holiday season.

Weaverville’s annual Holiday Parade will take place on Saturday, December 7th, at 11am, kicking off from the SECU parking lot on N. Main Street. We will be limiting parade entries to 65, and accepting the application exclusively through an online platform.

The online application will require a $20 registration fee, and is available here. This $20 fee will support Hurricane Helene storm relief.

Every parade entry will be required to send a representative to a mandatory safety meeting – these meetings will last one hour and take place at the Community Center or Town Hall in November.

All questions can be directed to Sarah Myers, Recreation Coordinator, (828) 658-5816 or smyers@weavervillenc.org
