All are welcome to attend the largest annual event in downtown Dallas. St. Nick and his entourage of marching bands, giant inflatables, costume characters and dancers will take to the streets to kick off the holiday season in North Texas. This seasonal spectacular celebrates and benefits Children's Medical Center in Dallas. Each year, more than 350,000 parade-goers join Santa to share in the cherished holiday tradition. Free and open to the public. Tickets for bleacher seating will be available for purchase this fall. 10 a.m.
