The annual Concord Christmas Parade, sponsored by TrueCare Pharmacy, is one of the oldest and continuously running Christmas parades in North Carolina!

Parade Route
Enjoying the parade from the picturesque sidewalks of North Union Street in historic downtown is a beloved community tradition. Following adjustments to the parade route last year due to streetscape construction, the 96th Concord Christmas Parade will officially return to Union Street!

The parade begins at the intersection of Church Street N and Lake Concord Road, and continues over two miles along Church Street, Buffalo Avenue, and Union Street, ending at the intersection of Union Street and Corban Avenue. The judges’ stage will be on Church Street directly in front of the Sherwin Williams store and across from Troutman’s BBQ.

Road Closures:
Roadways following the parade route will begin closing at 12:30 p.m. beginning with Lake Concord Rd. and travelling south. Floats will begin lining up at 12:30 PM on Palaside Dr, Arbor St, Circle Dr, Martin St, Le Cline Dr, Lake Concord Rd, Shady St, Floyd St, and Church St.
