Toronto Santa Claus Parade #TOSanta
This is the moment we have been waiting for all year. Join us this coming Sunday, November 15 for the annual Toronto Santa Claus Parade in partnership with Maple Leaf Sports & Entertainment (MLSE).
Toronto’s Santa Claus Parade featuring over 25 floats is the longest running children’s parade in the world. MLSE and the Santa Claus Parade began a partnership last year bringing together these two Toronto institutions. We must say that it is pure joy to see the Maple Leafs and other MLSE floats passing right before our eyes. We are huge Raptors and Maple Leafs fans and our kids can’t wait to see The Raptor and Carlton!
MLSE is also really proud to be supporting the Holly Jolly Fun Run. Participants will run 5K along the same route as the parade, showing their Christmas spirit as we cheer them on. Don’t miss Raptors legends Muggsy Bogues and Alvin Williams who will join eight-time NBA All-Star Dikembe Mutombo at the starting line. In partnership with the 2016 NBA All-Star Game in Toronto, these Holly Jolly Fun Run ambassadors will assume the role of official starters.
Don’t forget to plan your day by bringing warm clothes and activities for your children to do while waiting for Santa Claus. Check out the Fun Activities page to download and print this year’s Christmas colouring book and bring it with you. It is really nice! It is a replica of an original from 1952.

To show your support for the Toronto Santa Claus Parade, download the badge too and use it as your Facebook profile photo. So what are you waiting for? Get your hot chocolate, your colouring books, and your hats ready! Don’t be late! Santa Arrives at 12:30!

It was the perfect day for the parade. Usually it is so horribly cold, but the sun was warm and the air was crisp. It’s the grandest of all parades in Ontario.

We have a Santa Claus parade every year here too but I am sure its not near as huge as the one in Toronto.
