Purchase a North Pole Pass for your kids!

Experience that holiday feeling in the air at the Parker Christmas Carriage Parade on Saturday, December 14 at noon. This all-equestrian parade is made up of dozens of horse-drawn carriages, wagons, surreys, and stagecoaches from across Colorado, all dressed up for the occasion. Eventgoers will also enjoy a holiday Farmers Market.

The Town hosted photo opportunity with Santa will now be part of the North Pole Pass Experience, which requires pre-purchase. (Parents, bring your own camera as there will not be a professional photographer onsite!)

The NEW North Pole pass will create a day of holiday memories for kids ages 2-10! Passes are $20 for Parker residents and $23 for non-residents. Only a few tickets left! Purchase yours online today (under 2 included with the purchase of a sibling pass).

With this pass, kids will not only be able to share their Christmas wish list with Santa and Mrs. Claus but will hear a story read by Jolly Ole St. Nick himself. They will also walk away with an autographed (by Santa right in front of their eyes) storybook.
