Santa Claus is coming to town!
The Town of Bradford West Gwillimbury is planning a unique approach to the holiday season to comply with COVID-19 precautions while making festive celebrations accessible to as many residents as possible.
Since residents can't gather to see Santa this year, we're bringing Santa to you! On November 21 and 28, we invite you to “Spot Santa" as he travels across BWG to bring holiday spirit to all. Santa and his mini-float will be visiting the urban areas of Bradford on Saturday, November 21, and will visit Bond Head on Saturday, November 28.
This event will
be in place of the annual Santa Claus parade and the previously planned event at Henderson Park, which would have accommodated only a limited number of participants.
Date: Saturday, November 21, 2020
Time: 9:00am-12:00pm & 1:00-4:00pm
Location: Bradford

Santa will leave from the Community Centre at 125 Simcoe Road and then travel the town north of Holland Street from 9:00 am-noon and south of Holland Street from 1:00-4:00 pm.
