Jacksonville, North Carolina's beloved Christmas Holiday Parade is making its return on Saturday, November 21, 2026, and this year's edition carries extra meaning. Presented by Marine Federal Credit Union and organized by the Jacksonville Onslow Chamber of Commerce, the parade's theme — "A Star-Spangled Christmas: Celebrating 250 Years of America" — weaves patriotic pride into the holiday festivities.
The route will kick off at Coastal Carolina Community College and wind its way to Brynn Marr Shopping Center, giving spectators plenty of spots to line up and enjoy the procession.
Businesses and community organizations interested in joining the fun can register a float now, either online through the Chamber's website or by dropping off an application in person at the Chamber office.
