Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting - 2025

“Light the Night” Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting 

Get ready to Light the Night brighter than ever this holiday season! Our town’s annual Christmas Parade and Tree Lighting is right around the corner, and this year we’re celebrating with a glowing theme: Light the Night. We’re encouraging every float, group, and entry to bring the Light—string Lights, lanterns, glowing decorations, and anything that makes the Night Shine. 

Registration is officially open, and we’re excited to welcome businesses, schools, clubs, families, and community groups of all kinds. Signing up is easy, and you can register in three simple ways:
📞 Calling us - 803-707-8901
📧 Emailing us - springfieldparade@gmail.com
📝 Filling out our quick Google form

And the fun doesn’t stop at the floats! This year’s parade night will be filled with festive extras for everyone to enjoy:

🎅 Meet Santa
🐸 Snap a pic with Super Frog
🍔 Grab tasty bites from Full as a Tick Food Truck
☕ Sip something warm from Sonshine Coffee Co.
💚 And beware… The Grinch is on the loose!
🌲 Tree lighting immediately following the parade!

We’d love for you to be part of this bright, joyful tradition. Whether you’re building a float, walking with a group, or simply coming to enjoy the lights, your participation helps make this event truly special.
