West Chester Christmas Parade & Tree Lighting

Voted “Best Local Parade” and “Best Family-Friendly Event” by readers of Main Line Today, and presented by the Greater West Chester Chamber of Commerce, the hometown West Chester Christmas Parade delights fans of all ages as it kicks off a month full of celebrations during Chester County Hospital Lights Up Holiday Weekends in West Chester.

Parade night kicks off Dec. 1 at 6:30 p.m. with the official lighting of West Chester’s stunning 25-foot-tall Christmas tree on the lawn of the Historic Chester County Courthouse. The spectacle continues at 7 p.m. as 6abc’s Adam Joseph and WMMR’s Kathy Romano emcee the parade featuring local favorites — including more marching bands by popular demand! — as well as exciting newcomers and the most-anticipated appearance of the year: Santa!
