The Georgian Design Centre float won first place for the industrial commercial category of parade entries in the 2022 Collingwood Santa Clause Parade.

Collingwood's annual Santa Claus parade will be sweet this year. 

Parade organizers announced today the theme for the November event will be "A Gingerbread Christmas." 

Put on by the Downtown Collingwood Business Improvement Area (BIA), the parade takes place on Nov. 18 at 5 p.m. to take advantage of a dark sky for the Christmas lights. 

The theme is supposed to bring back memories of Christmas baking and families decorating cookies and houses made out of gingerbread. 

Registration is open now for float entries. There's no fee for community groups or non-profit organizations, but the commercial entry fee is $100. Businesses can also support the parade through sponsorships without entering a float. 

Complete details about the Santa Claus Parade are now available on the Collingwood Downtown website, at www.collingwooddowntown.com, or you may call 705-445-5595 for further information.
