Greeley Lights the Night Parade and Lighting Ceremony on Saturday, November 29, starting at 5:30 p.m. The parade route travels north on 9th Avenue from 15th Street to 7th Street, at Lincoln Park.

The parade is brought to you by the Greeley Chamber of Commerce/Visit Greeley and the Downtown Development Authority. The Title sponsor Century Link presents the parade which features more than 40 great holiday floats, displays and musical entries.

To warm those frosty fingers, First National Bank will be serving hot chocolate at 9th Avenue and 11th Street and Greeley Area Habitat for Humanity will provide hot chocolate and cider after the parade at the Lincoln Park gazebo. And, thanks to  Batter Up Cakes, there will also be a limited number of delicious cake truffles to enjoy in the park.
