The Kaiapoi Santa Parade is a free and fun event for children, and a celebration of goodwill in the local community.

Expect local floats, clowns, characters and music a-plenty as the parade makes its way through town.

Enjoy the carnival atmosphere throughout the day, with market stalls, rides, food and entertainment at Murphy Park from 9am and a fireworks extravaganza to finish the evening at approximately 9pm.

The float parade route is from the Countdown carpark on Hilton Street to Murphy Park.
