The Best Santa Claus and Christmas Parades in Vancouver

If you can't get enough of Christmas parades, you're in luck because Surrey's evening event is a 2-for-1 deal. The front of the parade is a collection of trucks and big-rigs, colourfully lit up, which looks great in the twilight. After the cross-city vehicles have departed you can look forward to a traditional display of floats, community dance groups, town mascots and, you guessed it, Santa Claus. Donations, in canned food or cash form, are gratefully received and benefit the Surrey Food Bank and Surrey Christmas Bureau. It's all happening on Sunday, December 3 at 5 pm.
