Mebane Christmas Parade

The City of Mebane is pleased to present the Mebane Christmas Parade!

The parade starts at the intersection of Second Street and Clay Street.  It goes down Clay Street turns right at Fifth Street and then takes an immediate right onto Center Street.  The parade finishes at the Mebane Community Park.

It is the area's only nighttime parade and is so much fun for the entire family.  The parade has taken place for many years featuring over 100 entries including businesses, churches, school groups and so on.  The parade ends with Santa Claus arriving in Mebane!
