Winterfest 2006 November 25, 2006

"Festive, magical sights will fill Public Square at the 23rd Annual Winterfest Carriage Parade and tree lighting on Saturday, November 25th from 6 to 7 p.m. Before the parade, enjoy events at one of ten participating downtown venues featuring art, music, dance, entertainment, and refreshments. Watch over 50 Vintage horse-drawn carriages featuring a range of stately and magnificent Clydesdales including adorable miniatures in every color and size as they make a memorable trip through the heart of the city, proudly wearing their best holiday attire.

This year, the parade will travel down Ontario through Public Square and move down Superior Avenue and West 6th Street in the historic Warehouse District. This year's Grand Marshall's will be Cleveland's own Raspberries. Tracey Carroll and Chip Kullik from the LANIGAN AND MALONE show on WMJI will be the Winterfest Emcees. All of this is followed by a magnificent fireworks display.

But the fun doesn't end there! Join us for a public after party at the 200 Public Square Building (BP Tower) where musical entertainment will be provided by the Up Ensemble. Santa will be there too (please bring your own camera for photos of your kids with the man in the red suit!) Other post fireworks events are being held at venues throughout the city. See an Ice Sculpting demonstration and display on East Fourth, Choral groups in the Old Stone Church, activities in the Old arcade and musical entertainment in Tower City."
