The 25th Annual Fayetteville Rotary Christmas Parade returns to downtown Fayetteville on Saturday, Dec. 14 to celebrate the holiday season.
The Parade has been organized by the Rotary Club of Fayetteville since 1999, and annually draws thousands of spectators to downtown Fayetteville. This year’s parade will start at 10 a.m. at the intersection of Person Street and Liberty Point, travel around the Market House and up Hay Street to the Railroad Station at Winslow Street.
“The Fayetteville Rotary is proud to present one of the largest family-friendly events in Fayetteville,” said Brandon Price, Rotary Christmas Parade Co-Chair in a press release. “We are excited to bring the community and families together for a holiday celebration in downtown Fayetteville and to be able to do so in grand style.”
Grand Marshals for this year’s parade are Dr. Stanley Wearden, President of Methodist University and Dr. Sam Fleishman, Chief Medical Officer of Cape Fear Valley Health Systems. Wearden and Fleishman represent the community partnership Methodist University Cape Fear Valley Health Systems School of Medicine.
This year’s parade will feature over 100 entries including bands, dance groups, motorcycles and horses and features everyone’s favorite, Santa Claus. Also featured will be Ville City Jeeps, local jeep owners and the parade’s official safety partners for 2024.
“For the past 25 years, the parade is Rotary’s annual gift to our community,” said Carolyn Justice-Hinson, 2024-25 Fayetteville Rotary Club President in a press release. “The mission of Rotary is to promote peace, goodwill, and understanding through service to others. There’s not a better way to fulfill our mission than continuing this beloved Fayetteville tradition that brings our community together to celebrate Christmas.”
ABC 11 TV is a proud media partner of the Fayetteville Rotary Christmas Parade and will live stream the parade live on Dec. 14, 2024 at 10 a.m.
