Christmas parade has been moved to Sunday!
Panama City Christmas Parade Update - 12/7/25 ~ 9:18 AM
We were hopeful that today’s rain would clear in time for the rescheduled Panama City Christmas Parade at 5:00 PM. However, the weather looks to take a bit longer to move out than expected. To ensure everyone has a drier, safer and more enjoyable experience, the parade start time has been delayed to 6:30 PM tonight.
Please note that the only change for this event is the start time. The parade route remains unchanged and will proceed along Harrison Ave from Government St to E 12th St.
Thank you for your patience, and we look forward to celebrating with you this evening!
