Tips & Advice

  • Bring a food or cash donation for the Georgetown Bread Basket Food Bank, which the Lions Club asks paradegoers to support this time of year.
  • Pick a spot anywhere along the 3.5 km route, which runs along Guelph Street, through downtown on Mill Street and down Charles Street.
  • Email the Lions to volunteer for the 2026 parade; volunteers take on a range of tasks and are promised the best view.
  • Dress warmly, because you'll be standing outdoors along the route in late November waiting for the floats, bands and Santa.
