The holiday season is coming to Atlantic City, and the community is invited to be part of the celebration!
The Atlantic City Holiday Parade & Holiday Village returns on Saturday, December 12, 2026, bringing holiday cheer to Atlantic Avenue with a festive parade followed by a Holiday Village at O’Donnell Park.
The parade will travel along Atlantic Avenue, beginning at New Hampshire Avenue and ending at O’Donnell Park. Residents and visitors are invited to line the parade route and enjoy an evening filled with holiday spirit, community pride, and festive fun.
The City of Atlantic City is currently seeking parade participants to help make this year’s celebration special. Community organizations, businesses, schools, marching bands, dance groups, nonprofits, clubs, and other groups are encouraged to participate.
Whether you have a festive float, a decorated vehicle, a performance group, or another creative way to celebrate the season, we want to see you on Atlantic Avenue!
The celebration continues at O’Donnell Park with the Holiday Village, where attendees can shop, gather, and enjoy the holiday atmosphere.
The City is currently seeking vendors for the Holiday Village, including local makers, artisans, small businesses, and others offering handmade goods and approved merchandise. It’s a great opportunity to showcase your products while being part of one of Atlantic City’s signature holiday celebrations.
