Suntrust Dickens of a Christmas

The 30th annual Suntrust Dickens of a Christmas will continue on December 14th beginning at 6pm! The second night of this Downtown tradition features everyone’s favorite Haley Toyota’s City of Roanoke Christmas Parade! The parade will start at 6:30pm at the intersection of Elm Avenue and Jefferson Street and will travel the same route as previous years on Jefferson, then turning onto Campbell Avenue, past Market Square. Downtown streets will be transformed into a magical space filled with costumed characters, horse drawn carriages, strolling carolers, marching bands, jugglers, and numerous community groups all highlighting various holiday traditions. Want to become a part of the magic? Participants must pre-register at no cost, and can find the parade entry form at Downtown Roanoke, Inc.’s website.
