The annual Pierre Parade of Lights will be held on a Friday this year (2024), rather than a Monday.
The Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce will host this year’s event Dec. 6, 2024, with the theme “Through a Child’s Eyes.” Parade entries can include floats, marching bands, dance groups, walkers, vehicles, and animals such as horses.
Prizes will be awarded for 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. Additional accolades include the Mayor’s Choice and Griswold awards. There is no participation fee; however, voluntary donations are welcomed to help offset the parade’s costs at the Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce.
Registration will be open from Nov. 4-22, 2024. Registration forms and a parade route map can be accessed on the Pierre Area Chamber’s website. For more information, please contact the Pierre Area Chamber of Commerce at (605) 224-7361 or email us at contactchamber@pierre.org.
The parade will start at 6pm CT in the T.F. Riggs High School parking lot and concluding at the American Legion Cabin.
The PACC extends gratitude to Avera St. Mary’s Hospital, the main event sponsor, as well as to the Clubhouse Hotel & Suites, Midwest Construction, My Place Hotel, Wegner Auto and Dakotamart for their sponsorship of the Parade of Lights.
