Sebastian Christmas Parade

The City of Sebastian’s Annual Christmas Parade is a longstanding community tradition that ushers in the holiday season along Indian River Drive. Sponsored by the City of Sebastian, the GFWC Senior and Junior Woman’s Club of Sebastian, and local partners including Orlando Health Sebastian River Hospital and Vatland dealerships, the parade celebrates local pride and festive spirit. The route begins at Main Street and continues south to Riverview Park, where Santa arrives to light the City’s Christmas tree and greet children at his decorated house. Residents line the streets to enjoy floats, music, and performances representing local schools, clubs, and organizations. Participants must register in advance through the City of Sebastian and be in place before the parade begins. The event concludes with Santa visits and community festivities in Riverview Park, marking the start of Sebastian’s holiday celebrations.
