Ocean City Christmas Parade canceled due to weather forecast

OCEAN CITY, Md. – Due to current weather conditions forecasted for Saturday, the Ocean City Christmas Parade has been canceled.

“Ocean City Special Events staff has been working hard to prepare for this holiday tradition and the last thing they wanted to do was cancel,” commented Special Events Director, Frank Miller. “Although we are disappointed, our staff does not want to put the volunteers, participants and the thousands of spectators that line the streets for the parade in hazardous and unsafe conditions.”

We’re told the Carousel will still host their holiday party, which will include Santa and Mrs. Claus. Additional holiday happenings, including the Winterfest of Lights, Winterfest Train Garden Display, the Mid-Atlantic Symphony Orchestra, and the Jingle Bell 5k will all be taking place this weekend, weather permitting.
