40th Annual Christmas Parade
The City of Destin’s 40th annual Christmas Parade will be held on Saturday, December 14, 2024, at 10am. For this year’s theme, we are taking it back to the 80’s: “Flashback to 1984”. The floats will start at Destin Methodist Church (200 Beach Drive), travel down Beach Drive, and travel west down Harbor Blvd. (Hwy 98) to Stahlman Avenue. Please stand on the north side of Harbor Blvd. to watch the floats. For those who wish to put a float in the parade, applications are available at the Destin Community Center.
