Chamber of Commerce, Monticello Illinois

It is time to start planning the Chamber Christmas Parade.

The parade is on December 6, 2025, stepping off at 11:30 AM.

We invite you to participate and help make this a fun event for the entire community.

 

The 2025 parade theme is:

 

A reminder – we have Santa on the fire truck at the end of the parade, so we would appreciate it if you didn’t have a traditional Santa on your float - we don’t want to confuse our young parade watchers.

 

The parade route will be the same as last year, north on Hamilton to Center, west on Center to State, south on State, and back to the school. A map will be released here and online.

 

Please fill out the online registration form by November 17, 2024. All entries after November 17th will be added to the end of the parade.   We will email you your parade number by the end of the day, on November 24th. Muster is on December 7th at 10:00 AM at the High School. We ask all entries to enter the parade muster area from Crestview Dr. to Kratz. The parade will line up on the south side of Kratz Rd.

 

Parking will not be available on the parade route in the downtown area to make the route safer and easier for everyone.

 

Thank you for your continued support of the Chamber Christmas Parade.
