Mark your calendars! Macon-Bibb County is kicking off the holiday season with two festive Christmas parades that promise fun for families across our community.

The celebrations begin on Saturday, December 6 at 2:00 p.m. with the Lizella Christmas Parade, rolling down Hwy 80/Eisenhower Parkway. This neighborhood tradition brings together local groups, decorated floats, and plenty of holiday cheer.

The next day, the magic continues downtown with the Macon-Bibb Christmas Parade on Sunday, December 7 at 4:00 p.m.. The parade will march along Cherry Street, following the same route as last year, and will feature community organizations, marching bands, performers, and a special visit from Santa. Applications will soon become available for those wanting to participate in this parade, so stay tuned!

Both events are free and open to the public, offering residents a joyful way to come together and celebrate the season. Bundle up, bring the family, and join us for two of Macon-Bibb’s favorite holiday traditions!
