🎉✨ Celebrating 30 Magical Years! ✨🎉
Since 1995, the heart of downtown Lake Orion has come alive with twinkling lights, holiday cheer, and the joyful sounds of the season. Every first Saturday in December, families and friends gather for the Orion Lighted Christmas Parade—a tradition that has been lighting up our village for 30 wonderful years!
With more than 75 dazzling entries each year—featuring civic groups, dance studios, scout troops, local leaders, marching bands, school groups, and so much more—the parade is a true showcase of community spirit. And of course, the grand finale never fails to delight: a very special visit from Santa Claus himself, spreading holiday magic to young and old alike.
This year, join us as we celebrate three decades of holiday sparkle, community pride, and cherished memories at the Orion Lighted Christmas Parade! 🎄✨🎅
