Celebrating Listowel’s Homecoming vwith a parade on Sat, Aug 2nd, beginning at 11:30 am

There’s lots to do and our plans are coming along. We will welcome all returning with our decorated stores, streets and homes that get us into the festive mood.

PLEASE NOTE OUR PARADE ROUTE!

As you see in the map link below, we encourage watchers to come out along this expanded route!

The Chamber couldn’t make this day complete without all the assistance from the Chamber’s Partners and the business community’s financial support.

Thanks to the LISTOWEL BIA for decorating the town, the Municipality, the OPP, the Fire Department and Public Works for assisting with the parade route, and safety related concerns.

Don’t forget to visit our local businesses and restaurants during our day with Santa!

ALL FLOATS MUST BE REGISTERED.

Once your application is approved we will send out a confirmation email, with instructions. Details will include your assigned staging area, the Parade Route, additional notes and safety plans.

THEME - ALL FLOATS MUST BE DECORATED in a heritage look.
