This year’s parade route starts at Foodland Buckhorn and ends at the Buckhorn Community Centre. Attendees can enjoy the final festive gathering, including photos with Santa, hot dogs and hot chocolate.

The parade will showcase floats, local organizations, community groups and Santa Claus. The Lions Club encourages spectators to line the route early to enjoy the full procession as it makes its way through the village.

The roads along the parade route will be closed from 2 p.m. to 3:30 p.m.

Attendees are encouraged to bring non‑perishable food items or household essentials to support the newly opened Buckhorn Food Pantry. They can be dropped off at the Buckhorn Community Centre. Every contribution helps support local families and strengthens the community as the holiday season begins.

Unwrapped gifts are also being requested for donation to give to other families who cannot afford presents for the holidays. They can be dropped off at the Buckhorn Community Centre.

“The Buckhorn Santa Claus Parade continues to be one of the region’s most beloved traditions, drawing neighbours, families, and visitors from across the Kawartha area. The Lions Club extends heartfelt thanks to local businesses, volunteers and sponsors whose support makes this event possible each year,” the Lions Club said in a statement.
