Get on Santa's good list! Come to the Santa Claus Parade in Port Hope in November to welcome the big guy for the holiday season.

Old fashioned community parade brings Santa down main street

Come on out to welcome Santa in Port Hope's traditional parade of floats, marching bands, elves and carollers on parade. The procession goes along Walton Street in the downtown to Memorial Park where the Candlelight Festival has lit up the festive seasonal décor. Twinkle!


Magical heritage downtown lights up for the holidays

See the glitter and wreaths of local businesses dressed up for the season. Come enjoy our picturesque downtown for unique shopping, dining and entertainment. Dress warm for a horse-drawn wagon ride through the streets. We love making merry!
