From Pendleton County Tourism:
Join us for our annual Christmas parade on Saturday, December 5, 2026.
This year we are honoring the great Dolly Parton! Use this theme to decorate your floats, cars, UTVs, Horses, motorcycles, tractors, semi’s, and more. No ideas on how to “Dolly it up”? That’s ok. Everyone who has the holiday spirit and Christmas cheer is welcome. Don’t forget to light up your entry!
Watch the parade: the route begins at 5:00 pm at the Fairgrounds heading north on 27, then right on Shelby St, ending at Shelby & Main.
Join in the parade: The lineup begins at 4:00 pm at the Fairgrounds – don’t forget to light up your entries! We have already arranged for Dolly herself to join Santa as our special guests. All participants will be asked to sign a waiver upon entry into the fairgrounds at lineup to participate.
