The Hollywood Christmas Parade

Hollywood's biggest holiday tradition rolls down Hollywood Boulevard with giant balloons, floats, marching bands, dance teams and celebrity guests, and Santa brings up the rear. The parade benefits the Marine Toys for Tots program.

Watching from the curb is free along most of the route, and grandstand seats near the start are sold separately.
