On Monday night, November 29, 2021, Pocomoke City will be transformed into a “Winter Wonderland” as the town plays host to one of Delmarva’s largest nighttime Christmas parades.

Always held on the first Monday night after Thanksgiving, the Pocomoke parade has become an Eastern Shore tradition and will attract over 100 units from Maryland, Delaware, and Virginia along with thousands of spectators.

If you are interested in participating this year’s event, please go to pocomokechristmasparade.com to register.  Applications are now being accepted for the 2021 parade.  You will find the applications and rules for this year’s event. If you have any questions, you can contact Mike Shannon at 410-726-5777 and leave a message with your name, address and telephone number and type of entry.

Each year the parade features marching bands representing high and middle schools from seven counties in three states.  Also featured will be beautifully decorated and lighted floats entered by schools, civic organizations, churches, and commercial enterprises.

Marching units, fire departments, equestrian units, and of course Santa Claus will round out the two-hour event, slated to kick-off at 7:00 p.m. sharp.  The route will take the parade north on Market Street beginning at 14th Street and ending at the Pocomoke River Bridge.  The judge’s stand is located in downtown Pocomoke City just in front of the Mini park.
