Combine the small-town atmosphere of a beach community parade, throw in a dash of Santa Claus, and mix with the official lighting of a remarkable town on Florida?s Emerald Coast, and you have the perfect makings to kick off the Holiday season in beautiful Seaside. It's Turn on the Town on Saturday, November 28th!

The parade begins at 4PM at the Seagrove Plaza and proceeds west to the town of Seaside. At 5PM, it?s party time in the amphitheater with holiday festivities and, of course, pictures with the jolly-bearded one. Soon, the master of ceremonies asks all the kids to the stage to sing to the crowd of smiling faces, and after a few versus of jingle bells, the count down begins in unison to ?Turn on the Town.? With one switch the new 24' Christmas Tree and the beautiful oaks along 30A will light up signaling the start of our holiday season.

Santa and Mrs. Claus will be on hand for pictures with the entire family following the tree lighting until 8:30PM.

Don't miss this holiday tradition at Seaside!

That's right JDarg, it IS parade day! Time to "Turn on the Town" at Seaside with the Annual Holiday Parade, which includes Santa's arrival, at 4PM and then the lighting of our new Christmas Tree. Don't forget to bring your wish list of presents that you want Santa to leave for you under the tree...he'll be under our tree until 8:30PM tonight for photos!

Would it be in bad form to cut in line in front of all those kids? I have quite a list, and it might take awhile. :D

Thanks Seaside for a wonderful afternoon/evening! The parade was so much fun, and then came Santa and Mrs Claus! They were so adorable! We go every year and this year was the most fun, beautiful and really packed with people. A wonderful way to begin the holiday season.
