About this Event
IT'S TIME TO PARADE!
Fredericksburg’s beloved Light The Night Christmas Parade, produced by the Fredericksburg Chamber of Commerce and proudly presented by title sponsor, H-E-B, is back in 2026! This beautifully illuminated night parade will roll down the city’s historic Main Street, between the intersections of Washington and Bowie streets, on Friday, December 4 at 6:30 p.m.
WE'RE ON TV!
Our media partner, CBS Austin, will live televise the first 30 minutes of the parade, featuring narrated coverage by the station’s anchors. The event, in its entirety, will be simulcast on the station’s website and livestreaming will also be available through Fbg.Live.
ENJOY RESERVED SEATING!
As always, first come-first served seating along the parade route is FREE. Attendees seeking an enhanced experience may purchase reserved bleacher seating at a cost of $40 per seat. The bleachers will be located in front on Pioneer Memorial Library, facing the beautifully illuminated Marktplatz.
Following the parade, join us for the afterglow on Marktplatz. There will be food and beverage for sale, kids activities and free photos with Santa and Ms. Claus.
