Santa Parade
Santa Claus will arrive in Poole on Sunday 16 November for the annual parade that will deliver the merry man to his Dolphin Shopping Centre grotto until Christmas Eve. But for the first time in the parade’s history, Santa will travel down the traditional High Street route in his sleigh pulled by two of his reindeers.
The fun will start at 10.30am when Santa will arrive at the Quay courtesy of the RNLI Lifeboat before mounting his sleigh and preparing his reindeer for the journey to the Dolphin Shopping Centre magical house grotto.
All manner of street entertainers, costumed performers, marching bands and singers will accompany Santa, including the Twister All Stars, the Dolphin Marching Band and the Dorset Youth Marching Band, to name a few. Adele Silva of Emmerdale fame and stars of Poole Lighthouse’s Dick Whittington and His Cat will also be joining the parade alongside the Lighthouse dancing girls.
Festive spirit will fill the air with Christmas carols and popular songs for all to join in, led by children from local schools who will also be taking part in the parade. Julia’s House will be the dedicated charity fundraising along the route and in the Dolphin Shopping Centre, raising much-needed funds for the Dorset children’s hospice.
