Getting ready for the holidays? The world class Children’s Hospital New Orleans Holiday Parade, presented by the Louisiana Office of Tourism, will take place Saturday, December 7. Thousands of parade-goers will line the streets of downtown New Orleans to enjoy the third annual event, which benefits the vital mission of Children’s Hospital. The parade will feature 30 custom designed, holiday themed floats, high-flying helium balloons, and more than a dozen dancing groups and marching bands to kick off the holiday season in New Orleans.

The Children’s Hospital Holiday Parade will begin at the French Market and roll through the French Quarter before turning on Canal St. The parade continues down Canal St. to Baronne St. before turning around to head back towards Tchoupitoulas. The parade will end on Tchoupitoulas and St. Joseph.
