About this event
Hosted by the Ballston Spa Business & Professional Association (BSBPA), this cherished tradition will light up Milton Avenue on Friday, December 6, bringing the community together for a night of festive fun.
Starting at 6:30 PM, the parade will dazzle spectators with colorful floats, fire trucks, and community groups celebrating the spirit of the season. The procession will make its way from the north side of Milton Avenue to West High Street, filling downtown Ballston Spa with sights and sounds that capture the magic of the holidays.
Following the parade, Santa and Mrs. Claus will make a grand entrance on an Eagle-Matt Lee Fire Company truck to light the holiday tree in Wiswall Park.
This year’s celebration includes a partnership with the Toys for Tots campaign, supported by the Ballston Spa Community Emergency Corps, the Saratoga County Sheriff’s Department, and the U.S. Marine Corps. Volunteers will collect new, unwrapped toy donations along the parade route and at Wiswall Park, spreading joy to children in need this holiday season.
To top it all off, December 6 coincides with First Friday in Ballston Spa, creating even more reasons to visit! Local shops and businesses will open their doors, offering holiday-themed activities, treats like hot cocoa and chowder, and free parking for attendees.
Don’t miss this beloved community event that kicks off the holiday season in true Ballston Spa style. Mark your calendars and join in the celebration!
