2022: Victorian Holidays!
Read about the history of Lansdale's seven-decade holiday tradition!
Discover Lansdale and the Mardi Gras Team are pleased to announce the 71st annual Lansdale Holiday Mardi Gras Parade on Saturday, November 19, 2022, starting at 1:00 pm.
This year’s theme is “Victorian Holidays.”
Each year the families of the North Penn area look forward to bringing in the holiday season with this special event. We hope that your organization or business can join in this year’s celebration.
First place will be awarded for the best presentation in each entry type except floats. Float entries will be awarded for 1) Best Presentation of Parade Theme. 2) Best Presentation of Non- Commercial Entry and 3) Mayor’s Choice.
Information on parade day sign-in, marshalling location and step-off time will be sent a week prior to the event. This information will be emailed, so please be sure the e-address is correct and clearly printed on the registration form.
Commercial entries are considered a separate class of entrant and must be a paid sponsor of the parade to participate. Commercial entry registration fee for this year is $100.00. (If you were also entered in the Lansdale 150 Parade in August, the fee is half-price.) All entries must be received by November 1, 2022. If you have any questions, please contact bill@discoverlansdale.org or click here to message us online.
As a reminder, the “carrying” of Santa Claus is strictly prohibited and is part of our finale, where the honor goes to the previous “Best Dressed” Fire Department winner. Thank you for understanding and observing this request. Additionally, we’re asking that all emergency service companies limit their truck entries to 5 vehicles total.
BUTTON PRE-SALES: We realize that many groups participating in the parade do not get a chance to purchase our commemorative button from the parade each year. Groups can pre-order and pre-pay for buttons for their group through their registration. Buttons cost $1.00, display the theme of the parade each year and help us fund the parade. (This year's design accompanies this story.)
On parade day we will have the Mardi Gras Team delivering buttons to each group that pre-ordered them. This is a great way to help us keep the parade running year after year here in Lansdale.
Please complete the online registration form, or fill out the print-version registration and return to: bill@discoverlansdale.org or mail to:

PO Box 1112
Lansdale, PA 19446
Line-up placement will be emailed to you the Sunday night before the parade.
Thank you for your support!
