Claremore Christmas Parade 2026

The only stop on this one-night-only holiday tour rolls into downtown Claremore on Saturday, December 12, 2026, where holiday classics meet legendary rock anthems in a celebration that's sure to have the whole community singing along. This year's parade will follow the traditional route, from the Claremore Expo Center eastbound on Will Rogers Boulevard.  

Whether your inspiration comes from Elvis, KISS, Queen, AC/DC, Journey, The Beatles, Bon Jovi, Taylor Swift, or your favorite Christmas album, parade participants are encouraged to create floats, vehicles, walking groups, and performances that bring the spirit of rock and roll together with the magic of Christmas.

We are excited to announce Josey Scott, lead singer of Saliva, as this year's Grand Marshal! 

🚗 Visual Style & Float Ideas:

ELFis Presley on Tour - Elf Elvis center stage, singing and playing The King's hits in a festive holiday jump suit under a million twinkling lights.

Rudolph's North American Tour - Christmas spirit was NEVER A PHASE, mom! Checkerboard vans and studded belts accompany jingle bells and skateboard decks with faux snow all around.

*Remember: No Santas are allowed other than the official Chamber Santa!

 Christmas lights are required on all displays.

All applications must be returned by December 10, 2026. No late registrations will be accepted.
