Santa Claus Parade

Every year, Markham welcomes in the holiday season with the annual Santa Claus Parade. This year, the Rotary Club will be holding the parade on Saturday, November 25, 2007 at 10:00 am. Starting at Main Street Markham and Parkway Avenue, the parade heads south to Highway 7, west on Highway 7 to McCowan Road and north to Bullock. With over 150 entries and an audience of more than 6,000, the Santa Claus parade is one of the biggest parades in the area.

Every year the Markham BIA hosts a number of special events on the street. Many of these have plenty of entertainment to keep visitors amused, like 1999s Markham at the Beach.
