Welcome to the 2011 Christchurch Santa Parade!
"A wonderful and significant event in the city's annual calendar”
– Former Mayor Garry Moore
A quarter of the region will line the streets of Christchurch at 2pm on Sunday December 4th to watch the 2011 Santa Parade, presented by the Christchurch Children’s Christmas Parade Trust.
A quarter of the region will line RICCARTON ROAD on Sunday December 4 etc.,
The route for this year’s parade will be RICCARTON ROAD from Wharenui Road to Mandeville Street approximately.
The parade will assemble in Wharenui Road from Riccarton Road back to Blenheim Road and disband in Mova Vale Ave, (just over the railway line), Riccarton Road to Deans Ave and Ayr Street.
We apologise for yet another change of route. These changes are beyond the control of the Trust.
Let’s make this parade one to remember and for a couple of hours forget about the events of the past 12 months!
Celebrities, spectacular floats, popular characters, clowns, animals and music will feature in the Parade. You can all be a part of it.
