The 12th Annual Bryant Christmas Parade has some big changes from the previous years. It will be in a different location, as well as on a weekend morning. Mark your calendar for Saturday, December 7th at 10 a.m. The theme is “Hallmark Christmas.” There will be floats, marching band and other entries. Viewers are welcome to line the roads to watch the parade. Just be careful not to block any driveways or drive-thru windows.
This event is presented by the Greater Bryant Chamber of Commerce and the City of Bryant. It is sponsored by Geyer Springs First Baptist Church, Bryant Family Pharmacy, and Centennial Bank.
The route begins on the north end of Market Place Ave., turn right onto Bryant Ave., and turn right onto Horizon Dr. The drop off area will be in the Goodwill parking lot on Highway 5 North. If you don’t need the drop off area, turn off the route and onto Harvest Dr.
