Description

The parade’s success hinges on the community’s participation, and we encourage all of our locals to register their float entries today! All parade entries, except horse riders, must pre-register and be decorated with Christmas decorations. The floats will be judged on the use of the 2023 theme, neatness, and the use of lights. The three winning categories are: Best of Show ($150 prize), Second Place ($100 prize), and Third Place ($75 prize).

Community float entries for the parade are free but you MUST register online. Business and Advertising entries are $45. Car Clubs and Individual Vehicle entries are $10.

Horses and ATVs that want to participate in the Christmas Parade are welcome, but are not required to register. Simply line up at the designated area on parade day. 

Rules and Regulations:

At any time after acceptance, an entry may not be allowed to participate in the Christmas parade if it deviates from the original application or violates any Christmas parade rule or regulation.
• Lawrence County Chamber of Commerce reserves the right to withdraw any float, any vehicle, any group or any person of which costume, display, decorations, theme or performance does not meet the Christmas parade rules and regulations or conform to the standards of reasonable public taste and fit the parade theme. All entries must observe all applicable rules and regulations and follow instructions from City of Lawrenceburg and parade officials or be banned from the parade.

• Entries MUST be decorated or dressed to reflect the theme of the parade: "Joy to the World"
