Enjoy the Casper Christmas Parade Like a Pro
The Christmas spirit is alive and kicking here in Casper!
The downtown is already decked out with twinkling lights, filling our hearts with holiday cheer. And let me tell you, this December is gonna be chock-full of holiday markets, crafting, giving, music, and more.
But hey, here's a little piece of wisdom for y'all: the holidays ain't no sprint, they're a dang marathon. So slow down, take a breath, and soak up the magic of the season with your loved ones, 'cause that's what it's all about.
Make sure you're free this Saturday because the Casper Christmas Parade is coming to town on December 7th at 6:30 pm! And let us hit you with some insider tips to make the most of this enchanting winter spectacle.
Be early...
First things first, get there early. You know how it is downtown—parking's scarce on a regular day, and during festive occasions like this, it's even more of a headache. So, give yourself plenty of time to snag a decent parking spot or be ready to hoof it from wherever you end up parking. And hey, depending on how early you roll in, it's the perfect excuse to treat yourself to something sweet downtown or make a dent in that holiday shopping list. Need some helpful hints for those hard-to-please people on your list? Check out our holiday gift guide. Art 321's hosting its Holiday Art Market from 10 am-5 pm, featuring local artists, music, and homemade goods. And if you're feelin' frosty, swing by Frontier Brewing Company and Taproom for their Ugly Sweater Party & Toy Drive kickin' off at 5:45 pm. Now, that's how you make a day of it, my friends.
Skate With Santa
But before all that, how 'bout spending the afternoon skating with ol' Saint Nick himself at David Street Station? Santa will be gliding around the community Christmas tree from 1 pm to 3 pm, and you can bet that's gonna be a hoot for the kiddos and the young at heart.
Dress for the occasion!
And here's a friendly reminder: dress the part! Look, we all know Wyoming's weather is unpredictable, especially this time of year. So, grab those warm layers, maybe a blanket or two, and a nice, toasty thermos of cocoa (or somethin' a bit stronger, if you catch my drift). Trust me, you'll thank me for it when you're cozy as can be while enjoying the parade like a champ. If you forgot to bring your own cozy beverages, no worries, you can check out our Sips 'n' Sweets Trail while you're downtown!
So, let's all get together, 5150', and soak up that holiday cheer! Casper ain't just a place; it's home, and we're gonna make this Christmas parade one for the books.
