Attend The 2019 Cox Pensacola Christmas Parade

Pensacola Christmas Parade

It’s almost time for one of Pensacola’s favorite Christmas traditions – the Cox Pensacola Christmas Parade! Over 50,000 people each year come out to watch the parade, which will have over 110 entries this year.

Pensacola Christmas Parade History

The parade began in 1982 with eleven entries and no bands, it was organized by the Pensacola Jaycees. In 1988 the Pensacola Christmas Projects, Inc. was formed as a non-profit organization with the intent to take over organizing and producing the parade. Today, the parade has over 100 entries and features all six local high school bands, as well as bands from as far away as New Orleans and Houston. The parade also honors the Navy’s Blue Angels to thank them for their dedication.

2019 Pensacola Christmas Parade

This year’s parade festivities will begin at 5:15 p.m. on Saturday, December 14. Before the parade starts, there will be a 1.2-mile Christmas Parade Dash, which is sponsored by the Pensacola Runners Association. If you can’t make it to the parade in person, don’t worry – it will be broadcasted live on WKRG-TV5 (CBS) – so you can still tune in to the holiday cheer!

Any profit raised from the parade will be divided between the local high school bands’ booster organizations. Over the years, over $25,000 has been donated to area high schools.
