The Downtown Traverse City Light Parade will take place Tuesday (November 29) after being cancelled last weekend due to weather.

The Central High School Choral-Aires will begin the celebration with carols at 5:30pm at the corner of Cass and East Front streets. Santa is scheduled to arrive at 6pm to light the downtown Christmas tree. The light parade will start at 6:30pm and travel along East Front Street between Franklin and Union. A map of the parade route and the order of participating floats can be found online here.
