Experience the magic of Christmas at the Farmers' Santa Parade in Auckland!
Every year, the Farmers' Santa Parade marks the beginning of the festive season in Aotearoa, sprinkling magic, song, and dance down Auckland's Queen Street. This year, the parade will return for its 92nd year with an unmissable line-up of family favourites, including children's television phenomenon Bluey.
Santa will be there to spread cheer alongside a suite of much-loved characters and fantastical floats, including an eye-catching one constructed entirely of LEGO®. Fans of Bluey will see their favourite blue pup in person too, as she makes a trip to Auckland to star on her very own float in the event.
Local community groups, such as Central Auckland Flip N Fly Circus School and South Auckland Cook Island Community Dance School, will perform throughout the parade, bringing their impressive skills to the street.
Plus, stick around after the parade for Santa's Party from 2:30pm - 5pm where more entertainment begins, including more of Bluey and Bingo!
Arrive early to secure the perfect viewing spot for this cherished holiday tradition.
