The parade was the brainchild of former Mayor Will Kleindienst<\/strong> and a small group of community minded individuals who believed it important to offer the Coachella Valley<\/strong> an event that would allow residents and visitors to celebrate the spirit and joy of the holiday season<\/strong> while at the same time creating a unique tourism event, which over the years has brought in an estimated 100,000 people annually to the downtown.<\/p>\n

Over the past 27 years, the parade has featured a host of marching bands<\/strong>, performing groups as well as the Budweiser Clydesdales, Mickey and Minnie Mouse, Snoopy and the Gang \u2014 and of course Santa and Mrs. Claus!<\/p>\n

it is the parade\u2019s signature floats adorned in thousands of colorful holiday lights and huge Macy\u2019s-style balloons that keeps the crowds coming back for more! Consistently voted one of the best local events in the Coachella Valley, the parade was also voted one of the Top Ten Holiday Parades in the country in an AOL survey.<\/p>\n
