Mark your calendars because the Horowhenua Christmas Parade and Carnival is booked in!
We are extremely grateful to Higgins who are sponsoring traffic management for this event to bring it back to the community.
This year's parade will feature a record-breaking 42 floats. It will start at Victoria Street and Weraroa Road and finish at Levin Domain, where the Christmas Carnival awaits.
To make the event run smoothly, several streets will be temporarily closed during the parade. See Temporary Road Closures – Horowhenua Christmas Parade public notice for details, and use the Parade Route Map to find the best viewing spot.
