The Manchester Christmas Parade will once again bring joy to thousands of spectators, young and old. Bigger and better than ever with over 400 participants, prepare to be amazed by Mistletoe dancing mice, horse-riding elves on stilts, an oversized polar bear, Christmas robins, robot drummers, a toe-tapping hip hop elf, airborne puppetry, and so much more.

This year’s parade will also include Manchester’s very own Elf Express – a spectacular train with carriages full of elves – and the return of the enchanting Snow Queen.

The parade starts and ends at Manchester Cathedral.
