The Scottish Christmas Walk Parade

The Scottish Christmas Walk Parade: Begins at 11 AM

More than 100 Scottish Clans, pipe and drum bands, Scottish dancers, re-enactment groups, Scottie dogs, dignitaries, classic cars, and, of course, Santa Claus will march through the streets of Old Town. Parade begins at St. Asaph and Wolfe Streets at 11 am.

Tour historic Old Town homes decorated for the season, wander through a marketplace full of greenery and unique gifts, enjoy the tastes of fine scotch, and last, but certainly not least, take in the sights and sounds of the Scottish Christmas Walk Parade.
