The Etobicoke Lakeshore Santa Claus Parade started as an idea in 1990 as a collaborative effort between the Lakeshore Village (New Toronto) BIA and Long Branch BIA, to bring back a Christmas Parade after a 25 year hiatus.

As a result of the dynamic changes in the area, there was interest in drawing crowds, supporting local businesses, and showcasing that the Etobicoke Lakeshore area was a vibrant and attractive community to play, work and live.

Come celebrate the season with 60,000 of your neighbours!
