The Children’s Discovery Museum is excited to be collaborating with the city of Waterville to host this wonderful event again this year!

While we have loved partnering with Winslow each year for the parade, due to ongoing bridge construction, we believe it is safer to keep the parade on one side of the river. Winslow is still planning to spread its holiday cheer by lighting up their Winslow Gazebo and we look forward to bringing the parade back across the bridge in the future!

The 2024 Parade of Lights will be held on Saturday, November 30, at 6pm. Floats will assemble along College Ave, travel down to Main Street, stopping at Castonguay Square for the lighting of the giant spruce and Santa's arrival at Kringleville. A map will be provided closer to the event. We would like to invite all area schools, businesses, churches, organizations, and municipalities to participate in the parade by entering a float, marching band, or other appropriate entry.
