Event Details

2019 Winter Wonderland, Parade of Lights & Tree Lighting | San Rafael

Downtown San Rafael will once again host its annual Holiday Parade & Winter Wonderland. In its 40th year, the event features a Holiday Marketplace with arts and crafts, live entertainment, children’s activities, and one of the largest holiday parades in the Bay Area.

No snow or sledding for 2019:  The event promoters are sorry to report that due to weather changes and a lack of funding to create the Snow Hill, they are not able to offer the snow sledding in 2019. They will be offering a variety of new activities in its place for kids of all ages.

There will have all the traditional activities such as the Holiday Marketplace from noon to 8 pm, The Parade of Lights at 5:30 pm, The Tree Lighting Ceremony at 6:00 pm in the City Plaza and of course the meet and greet with Santa, Mrs. Claus, and all of their friends, right after.

The event is attended by people from all over the Bay Area. It also enjoys a very local feel and is known as a great destination for people.

The event takes place the day after Thanksgiving, one of the biggest shopping days of the year. Don’t miss this great opportunity to take advantage of the holiday shopping season.
