The annual parade kicks off at 4:30 p.m. and this is the first year the city has been in charge of organizing it.

Previous Santa Claus Parades in Penticton were organized by the Downtown Penticton Association (DPA), who chose to defer funding and organizing this civic event and others to the city earlier this year.
