🎅 TOO MANY SANTAS. ONE REAL DEAL.Welcome to SantaFest, the 2026 O’Fallon Illuminated Holiday Parade!
This year’s theme:
“Will the Real Santa Claus Please Stand Up?”
We’re filling Downtown O’Fallon with lights, holiday cheer, and a parade of delightfully obvious Santa imposters. Every parade unit gets to put its own spin on a fake Santa, while the REAL Santa arrives last for the grand finale.
Bring your family, gather your friends, and see just how many ways our community can reinvent the man in red.
📅 Saturday, November 28, 2026
🕕 Parade starts at 6 PM
📍 Downtown O’Fallon, Illinois- ending at COMMUNITY PARK for the free festival and tree lighting!
