The Downtown Livermore Holiday Sights & Sounds Parade is a festive holiday event inviting all to attend. If you love local marching bands, music, light displays, and Santa Claus, you're in the right place! The hour long parade is a sizeable endeavor that entertains locals and visitors to Tri-Valley. One of the guidelines of this parade that maintains its quality is that walking entries aren't accepted, thus providing many floats and vehicles lit and decorated. All entries must be lighted or have holiday music incorporated into the design, according to parade planners, Livermore Downtown Inc.

 Parade on First Street at 6pm! Featuring local Businesses, Marching Bands, Music, Lighting Displays & Santa Claus! 

Part of the Home for the Holidays Downtown Livermore event, there's a Tree lighting ceremony after the Holiday Sights and Sounds parade.
