Northville officially kicks off the holiday season Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024 -
On Saturday, Dec. 7, 2024, the Village of Northville will host the Northville Lighted Parade, followed by the annual tree lighting in the park and the arrival of Santa. The parade begins at 5 p.m.
This year, due to the Firehouse construction and under recommendations from our PD and DPW, we are going to be changing up the parade route. The parade will stage on North Third Street, facing NORTH (Reed Street), proceed to Reed Street, turn down Main Street and continue PAST the Waterfront Park, ending at Washington Street. Please share the new parade route with your friends!
Annual festivities in the park include Santa's tree lighting, a visit with Santa, a toasty bonfire with cookies & cocoa will be held immediately after the parade.
We unfortunately will not have horse drawn sleigh rides this year as the company we have always used and had on schedule for this year, decided in mid-November that they did not feel they could conduct the rides safely due to the construction. As we had such late notice from them, we were unable to retain the services of another company as these events book out a year in advance.
Throughout the day on Saturday, we will have holiday music in the commercial district and the local Northville merchants will be holding various holiday open house events. Visit the village of Northville for a festive small business holiday experience.
