About this Event
Grab your corgi(s) and join the one and only NWA Corgi crew in the 2025 Downtown Bentonville Christmas Parade as a walking group! Can you believe this will be our 9th year walking in the parade?!
Last year, over 75 corgis showed up and we are going for even more this year! Can we get 100 corgis?? Only one way to find out!!
Get your corgi Christmas outfits ready! Don’t think your corgi can walk very far? Decorate a wagon or a stroller with some Christmas decor and pull them with the group!
Think your corgi is too much of a grumpy gills to join? There is lots of space to stretch out and separate yourselves before we start walking, plus you can distance yourself from others when it’s go time too!
Have a corgi wannabe? They can join us too!
**2025 DOWNTOWN BENTONVILLE CHRISTMAS PARADE NWA CORGI WALKING INSTRUCTIONS**
Who can walk with our group in the parade?
Anyone with a corgi or a corgi "wannabe"! All corgis & friends are welcome 🙂
Our load in time that everyone MUST arrive between is 4:30-5:00 PM CST.
There will be NO parking at the staging grounds area. Someone can drop you off in the staging area but they must exit with their vehicles immediately after dropping you off as the DBB parade committee is not allowing ANY parade participants to leave their cars at the staging grounds. If you wish to park a car nearby, you are required to park your vehicle in a designated parking area (map will be provided in discussion section of this event for your reference).
Look for one of our giant corgi cardboard cutout signs, our banner or a bunch of corgis to let you know you’re in the right place 😉
Parking will get wild so shooting to get to our spot as soon as the window opens will allow you to work through any issues finding the group in advance. The parade will start moving promptly at 6:00 PM!
Distance walked is less than a mile! If you would like an easy getaway, park your car at the end of the parade route (over by Preacher’s Son) and walk over to our meetup location.
