CLEARLAKE, Calif. – Plans already are under way for Clearlake's annual Christmas parade, which will be held on Saturday, Dec. 3.

The theme is “Santa’s Workshop.”

The parade will begin at 6 p.m. at Redbud Park. Participation line up is at 5 p.m.

Floats, marching bands, and choirs, will travel down Lakeshore Drive led by Lake County Fire Protection District's fire trucks. 

Santa and Mrs. Claus will again be the main feature for children and adults alike.

This event every year brings smiles and cheers from crowds along Lakeshore Drive who enjoy the colorful decorated floats and vintage cars.

The celebration ends with songs, hot chocolate and tree lighting in Austin Park where Santa will be at the gazebo to talk with children. 

The Clear Lake Chamber, St. Helena Hospital Clear Lake, the Lions Club, and other local organizations and businesses will once again partner to create a memorable evening.
