What a night to remember! The Downtown Marion Christmas Parade was a spectacular success, and it’s all thanks to our incredible community. Despite the chilly temperatures, families, friends, and visitors gathered in the heart of Downtown Marion to experience the magic of the season together.
A Record-Breaking Lighted-Truck Parade
This year’s Lighted-Truck Parade was the biggest yet, featuring over 70 dazzling vehicles that lit up the streets with festive holiday displays. From decked-out semi-trucks to creatively adorned floats, the parade brought joy and excitement to all who watched. The dedication and creativity of our participants made this year’s event truly unforgettable!
