On Nov. 30, the Medway Christmas Parade will celebrate 32 years of this holiday tradition. 

The parade will begin at 5:30 p.m. It will depart from Medway High School, travel through Medway, and finish at the Thayer House/Choate Park. A brief program will take place at the Thayer House - where the concession will be open, and Santa & Mrs. Claus will be available for photos – followed by the lighting of the town’s Christmas lights at Choate Park and a spectacular fireworks display.

The Christmas Parade will include numerous community and commercial floats, along with an estimated 35-50 fire trucks from many communities near and far, all decorated with Christmas lights and displays.

Each year, the Christmas parade is viewed by an estimated 8,000 people!

The Medway Christmas Parade is 100% privately funded and sponsorships and donations in any amount are needed and welcome. Any proceeds are used to purchase additional lights and ornaments for Choate Park.

Community and commercial floats are welcome.

All parade participants must arrive at the high school between 4 p.m. and 4:30 p.m. on the 30th. Commercial entries will require a $100 donation for each vehicle and business advertised. 

All entries must be secure and well-lit. 

No candy-throwing is allowed due to safety concerns.

Please note, in case of inclement weather, the fireworks display will be conducted on Nov. 31.
