A longtime Music City tradition, the Piedmont Natural Gas Christmas Parade officially kick starts the holiday season downtown with the lighting of the Christmas tree at Public Square Plaza at 7:00 p.m. by Mayor Karl Dean, Piedmont Natural Gas executives and parade Grand Marshal Vince Gill. This year’s parade celebrates “Christmas Around the World” and is the biggest and best parade yet featuring “The Light the World Parade” performers, tons of floats, fun for the kids and marching bands from across the South East. Vince Gill will lead the parade through the heart of downtown Nashville starting at 2nd Avenue and continuing on through Broadway. Don’t miss the free, fun family event celebrating Christmas in Nashville. All proceeds will benefit the Piedmont Natural Gas Share the Warmth program.
