2018's Nine Flags Festival Christmas Parade in Nac Is Almost Here

The Nacogdoches Lighted Christmas parade is coming up Saturday December 1st. This year they have made a few improvements, the one big thing is the awards. Winners will be announced at the end of the parade. Then they will be notified to go to the parade main stage.

Parade starts at 6:30pm sharp and the parade route winds around the brick streets downtown. Local celebrities are usually MCing the parade from various points along the route. But I will be nice and toasty warm. Waving at you. To be in the parade, or get more details, just email christmasparadenac@outlook.com

So just remember when you are out there freezing cold I will be nice and toasty with my thermos full of coffee. I wonder if I should warm it up. Santa will be waving at the end. Going to be cold so bundle up! After the parade we are going to watch a fireworks display so stick around!

This is all a part of the Nine Flags Nacogdoches Christmas Festival. The them this year is I'll be home for Christmas. The festival actually starts Saturday at 1pm, and goes till 10pm.
